So my "no gold in the Emirates" lasted about a month, turns out let they literally don't give a crap what we non Muslims do, and there are gold pieces everywhere to be had since the Muslims can't wear them.

I'm rolling heavy right now with my 7 watch line up. And the best thing is, you can just leave them out in your hotel room and never worry about them being stolen.



Love love the Polaris

My offer of $100 for that JLC still stands but not for much longer. Getting a little impatient with you.

Act now before I move on.


This is the inverse "I know what I Have"

Try being a right handed that wears watches on the right hand. Interestingly, my wife does the same thing. Must be a tennis thing since we both played competitively in our youth and have both worn on the right side our whole lives.

As a non-tennis player, why would that make sense?

You beat me to the question. A quick google search appears to show Federer and Djokovic wearing watches on their left wrists despite being right-handed tennis players.

Picked up a Seiko 5 Automatic the other day. I love the clear case back

I didn't say that it did. Just interesting that both of us do and that's the only reason we both came up with.

Placed a new brown leather band on my blue face Bulova back in July, but forgot to post a photograph on the thread. Should be able to do so by the end of the week.

Excellent photograph. I'll try for an outdoor scene as well.

Just for you, redstone, I got a Hamilton for my birthday. Actually a hamilton-era Illinois watch co that was my grandfather's that my parents had serviced and surprised me with. Apparently it was his "got my first real job" watch when he started at the Chronicle (to keep it forum appropriate...he spent most of his career as a typesetter, not sure if that's where he started)

That's excellent. I just attempted a shot with the moon for background as dusk ended, but the light didn't cooperate and I'll reevaluate shortly.

Just wanted to offer kudos for using "bated" correctly in this instance.

Go away! 'Batin'!

Srsly though, I feel we should at least attempt the use of proper grammar here in the "finer things club" thread, if nowhere else on texags
