I should have known somebody would try to cut my throat on the deal......That's all right, I will put a nuclear bid on it in the last second.

Due to huge luxury counterfeit watch market, anyone who knows watches will just assume the RM is a fake. I know the post is sarcasm, and don’t really think you are in the market, but you don’t want to buy a luxury watch off EBay. If you are in the market for a heirloom time piece, look at Patel Phillip, Panerai, Vacheron Constantine.

I’ve always had good luck with Seiko, and Casios. You can go mechanical, quartz, but these two brands give you good quality at good prices

I would be buying it on her Pay Pal account, I think she said it was tacky because she didn't want to spring for it.

With Titanium Rubber, one can never go wrong.... does it come with someone that will wear it and give you the time on demand?

Just quit showering. I haven't bathed since I retired three and a half years ago. Think of the money I have saved on hot water. The only really negative side effect I have had is that my dog no longer wants to sit in my lap.

I wear watches, collect them and am the community watch battery changer...

Off to zoom with my therapist, who claims I DO NOT have an inferiority complex, I'm just plain old, inferior, or a nobody
