Aren 27 Posted December 14, 2013 Miss you so much Robert. RWG hasn't been the same without you. I think of you so much when I am in the Shoutbox. In some ways I am still looking for you there. This day is a sad anniversary for the lose of our friend, TD and extended family member Robert. I don't want to post a link to Robert's hospital stay. It is hard to read it. Robert was always such a strong personality and his last post revealed human frailty. All the warmest wishes to Robert's family who is joining us today. Thank you for stopping in to see us. Know that Robert isn't gone from here...he just now lives in our hearts and minds. RIP my Dear Friend.

Odyseus 1 Posted December 14, 2013 I got quite a few reps from Robert and they were all bloody brilliant!! I never found out where they were sourced from?? I guess Thailand??

BigBuys 0 Posted December 14, 2013 Robert wasn't from the South but he was a 'get her done' type of guy. No frills just the good stuff plus a little lip. This is a much less colorful place with his passing. RIP Robert James Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corv99 2 Posted December 14, 2013 Is it really 2 years? Wow... He was a great dealer... And sooo entertaining at times too R.I.P. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dendo 93 Posted December 14, 2013 Miss him. He was in the business a long time but was always enthusiastic about watches and honest in his dealings. I kind of liked the fact that he did not suffer fools gladly - a survival mechanism in this business. He got lots of nice watches for me - some pretty rare ones. One sale sticks in my mind - he actually told me not to buy a watch from him - 'was not good enough and not my style'. I miss the banter. RIP mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
