    I just saw that mess in the other thread.
    Not sure what just happened there! LOL

    I don't need to justify my authentication experience, and for the record, I have a bench with tools at my home as well as at my shop.
    The view from my bench at home is much nicer than the view from my office. :)

    I have been doing this for quite some time, 25 years. Don't know or care who this rife guy is/was. Funny how that thread kept taking turns all over the place.
    Hope everyone has a great week!

    Yup. VTC is top notch. I bought a used Rolex from him a few years ago for the wife. I had to get it serviced recently, and, guess what?!?!

    It's a real ROLEX! :)

    Heck, I can take off bracelets, open up casebacks, and what not at home; I was confident you would be able to do way more. ;)

    Darth was complaining about the thread being labelled with "2012" at the tail. Changing it to "2013" seemed wrong as the thread did start in 2012, so I used "Mk II" to distinguish it form your old sales thread.

    Chris,
    The wifey banged up her M K gel watch pretty good. She asked me to have you find her another weekend beater watch. It's for water/sand/boating.

    Lets keep it under $400 unless its really neat.
    Anything come to mind?
