Hi Fred, I think by your usual (not always) insinuation, condescending tone and pointless acussations, you are putting people down.
This is also what you called Bro Exondus (put other peoples down by name calling) and suggested that Rolex ownership is (make fun of other watchmaking brands) going the way of the dodo on 30 Oct 2010 in your reply to him.
"You're obviously making false & baseless accusations.
You're barking at e wrong tree.
And, you're off-topic.
Worst, you dun even know Panerai to speak about it.
You only know 312, it seems
Other traders like YKC brought in less than 30 piece of Rolex in last 3 years.
All in all, grey traders brought into SG less than 200 pieces of Rolex in last 3 years.
We are not the cause of Rolex failure cause we cannot possibly fight AD who brought in 30,000 pieces of Rolex a year into Spore.
I can assure you, all the grey traders here are not making one single cent from Rolex since 2006. We r just taking these Rolex to fulfill our qouta with the ADs to maintain relationships for other brands purchase.
In fact, starting from 2007, you can clearly see that our Rolex pricing is low as we r only keen to minimize losses asap by disposing fast.
You obviously ignorant and are only shooting off your mouth with no facts."
Our generation only want something that no1 else is wearing.
Gone are the days when my dad goes to a wedding banquet to find 7 of his fren wearing the same 1680 in e same reception.
Gone r the days when my granddad & 3 of my granduncles wouldn't mind visiting my great-grand parents wearing the same 5513.
Some went to their graves in Melaka wearing the same 5513.
These ppl are all dead, dying or outta $ due to over-ageing....they dun even have $ to pay Rolex Service Ctr SGD1,200 to full service their pitted case for goodness sake & I had to pay em.
Rolex had severely over estimate its branding power on the new generation M & S who want's to be exclusive.
I dun wan to wear e AP ROO Safari that my boss is wearing even when it's my fav must have item.
I dun wan to wear e Calatrava that my cousin is flashing around.
I dun wan to be seen in a Big Pilot cause my colleague in my office was dumb enough to get 1 last mth when he know's I already have one.
So, greed killed Rolex. Not grey-traders. Not me. We never make much. We never flood e mart.[/COLOR]

Maybe I'm being too sensitive, but this must have been the catalyst of the displeasure against you, and not because we are trolls or moles working for grey dealers.
However, I'm certain if you were more sensitive to the feelings of others and presented your thoughts with less hints of clinical paranoia, a less harsh and abrasive tone, tensions will start to ease over time.
