Can someone help me with this?, thanks Welcome from Canada! You will quickly get accustomed to the lingo and acronyms on the board. Just use the search bar when you are lost and you will be fine. For sure any questions that you may have will have likely been asked before and covered off by the awesome members here, and no doubt you (like all of us) will be spending your hard earned cash on cool watches. DSSD = Deep Sea Seadweller (popular Rolex Model) TC = one of our Trusted Dealers who makes one of the best Rolex Submariner reps you will come across NOOB = could stand for a new member, or as a name for the popular "factory" that assembles many rep models - some say Noob Factory is fictitious, but I think it's real..kinda like Santa Have fun here!

TheSav 2 Posted April 23, 2013 G'day and welcome. Don't worry I am still learning the lingo. At least you have the balls to admit you don't know what things mean. The search on this forum is your best friend. It'll answer most if not all of your questions. It's almost like a magic 8 ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Flashheart 0 Posted April 23, 2013 Lingo? What a dreadfully gauche word that is. Personally I have no problem with the abbreviations used hereabouts, I just refer any queries I may have to the little man who looks after all my online and social media needs. I find the biggest issue is the mangling of the Queen's English by the far too numerous colonial members. Things have come to a pretty pass when vikings various, and God help us, Frenchmen have better grammar and syntax than those for whom English is allegedly their mother tongue. That aside, and despite your locale, welcome to RWG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
