WatchDog21 3,345 Posted June 5, 2018 Calm down, calm down..... This is NOT a TC, ARF, Noob v186, R-Factory or anything of the likes, BUT they are going to be FREE; including shipping! What we have here is a failure to.... oh wait... that should be... What I have here are 2 stunning Rolex watches to pass on to a lucky recipient! I acquired both of these in a "for parts or repair" lot of watches I picked up off of eBay. Needless to say I am not going to try and pass them off on some uneducated person as the real deal and I just have no use for them at all. So without any further suspense here they are! First up is a Rolex Cellini QUARTZ! I put a new battery in it and it has been running just fine. The second is a RARE Oyster Perpetual Date Just Submariner Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified! Quartz of course! If I remember correctly, It too will run but it does need a battery. Screw down crown and bezel does rotate! So what's the catch? What do you have to do to be that luck recipient? Send me a pic of your username along side of a sock and.... oh there I go again, wrong line for this thread. Really you don't have to do anything other than reply to this thread and make some sort of post that can maybe make me laugh. Open to either one or two lucky winners; I won't force them both on anybody. BUT In the end, I reserve the right to give these to whomever I so please but a good laugh certainly does give you better odds. If after a few days NOBODY wants them then I will box'em up and send them to someone who seems to have a way of working magic with Rolex watches. Oh and the real bummer, I am keeping this to CONUS; the cost of international shipping far exceeds the value of both watches put together and only to most likely see some customs agent wearing it at the end of his work day. Edit: I have decided that the cut off date will be the 21st; it will be my B-Day gift giveaway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Stubbs 0 Posted June 6, 2018 Hey, my chops are frothy! It’s kind of an age thing. but they are frothy. It’s just that these are rare antiquities of the Tang Underground Rep Dynasty (TURD). Antiquities are illegal to sell to Canadians. But we have a few TURDs of our own in Canada, and I consider myself quite the TURD fancier. So if, say, we consider Canada to part of the Northern Continent, and if, say, a slightly ‘warm’ TURD were to be ‘accidentally’ sent to my address free and ‘gratis’, well, who are we to decide what is proper? And Let Me Tell You... Nothing quite satisfies me like a nice warm TURD! ...and I’d put them on some REALLY nice straps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Mounties don't give a fuck about TURDS. That distinction falls to the CBSA. Notice I didn't use the French acronym anywhere for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
