cars. women. watches (kinda sorta) nothing else matters.

ah. reminds me of home. *happy sigh* I think that may be the nicest thing anyone has ever said about either of us

Having gotten so tied up in semantics that I didn't even answer the point you made (d'oh!), I'd better correct that... I get where you're coming from, but I don't entirely agree. I've owned expensive cars in the past and am planning to buy a Mercedes fairly soon. Yes, I could afford a gen watch or two, but I enjoy my reps - they keep excellent time, and for the price of a single gen Tag Grand Carrera I can own a VC, a couple of Panerais, a couple of APs and a bunch of others that I won't cry about if they get scratched at work (which happens on occasion). If I was wearing a gen, I'd be constantly worrying about it getting damaged... Anyhow, it leaves more money to spend on antique books and fast cars

Sadly not. Strictly speaking, anachronism is also incorrect in this instance, but it's close to what you appear to mean. "incongruity" might have been a better choice of word.

...and this surprises you exactly why?

I think you mean "anachronism", and no, not really....

You peeked! I guess I should've expected that from you.....

This could get outta control in a hurry. I'll save my response for when we're back home....

Generally it seems that returned watches are going to be gone two months or longer, so you're about on target. Patience, young Jedi, receive your watch you shall... The avatar needs to stay, however....

OKE

oke

bum?

Mine? I did. So there

You must be slipping. Go home immediately!

Should be doing the bloody washing up....

Would be improved by less pyjamas....

How about a Patek 24 hour? I'm planning to pick one up for the missus myself...

Sorry - it was your 'fire breathing' comment that just hit my funny bone - couldn't resist I agree with you btw - I dunno where the idea came from that BMWs had no torque... (not that I'm a big Beemer fan btw - as you'll see if you've read the thread).

Yes, one of those.

I'll take the SLR, no the Veyron, no, the SLR. Oh hell, I'll have both. Thanks. Nice!

I'm glad we got that cleared up....
