Eating crow? Changing my opinion?

Well i was very opinionated about Rolex watches. Its true that i never saw one in person or saw one that called to me. Not that it mattered much because i would never spend that much money on a watch,even if i could. In fact i responded to many posts on this site,when people were showing their Rolex in what i thought was a humorous way of saying, i'm tired of hearing about it. I would respond, Marcia Marcia Marcia. Rolex Rolex Rolex. Well at a wedding last week i saw a watch with a light blue dial. The case and bracelet was glinting in the sun. So i asked the brother of my nieces boyfriend, "What kind of watch is that your wearing?" He responded, "Its a Rolex," as he held his arm up so i could see. I instantly felt like i had taken the bait. Wow was it nice. I still didn't care for the Peral producing crustiation bracelet. I still wouldn't spend the amount of money that i'm sure it cost. But i can see why there is an alure. So i'm sorry if i offended anyone at my effort to be funny,and voicing my opinionated spending criteria. Duane.........Black Diamond,WA. 98010

Contrary to what some people on this forum think, our tastes change with time. Sometimes we like something, and a while later we do not understand how we could like that hideous thing. Sometime we think something is awful, and later we proudly display it. So, apology accepted. Buy yourself a Rolex if you can and enjoy it.

Light blue dial? So was this a precious metal version? That I could understand. Steel, meh.

"A sign of intellect is the ability to change your mind in the face of new facts" --Adam Grant

And the ability to *talk about* having changed one's mind is certainly a sign of some other great thing, which a more quotable person would surely be able to name.

I don't know what explorer or air king is but i am sure it is over rated and over priced. Duane..........Black Diamond, WA. 98010
