The jubilee remains an option today on the GMT II and was original on the GMT going back to the mid to early 60s.

I would like to see a 40 mm GMT, the 159 or 244.

I tried on both yesterday in the Cartier store in Nassau. I prefered the medium size. I have a few PAMs, 44 mm and 45 mm, so I'm a fan of bigger watches, but the medium size just seems more proportionate (sp?). This will be my next rep in stainless and gold with the stainless and gold bracelet. I think it's a great looking watch.

I agree with Jet, if you get a genuine, I would look for one that is a bit older and save a chunk of $ you can then spend on reps or another genuine.

Congrats to the Heat. I suffered through the game last night in my hotel room in Nassau. I knew it wasn't going to happen when the MAVs missed 12 in a row from the field in the 3rd.

You dog, you're building my dream watch. Let me know if you ever want to get rid of it.

I would check out a Swatch. They are fun and fairly durable.

I spend a bunch of time in Mexico and high end watches are very popular, but not many of the $20k+. I deal with a guy that wears a gold President with diamonds everywhere, dial, bracelet, case, bezel.... His sons wear gold Presidents, white gold Daytonas and the most popular watch I see in Mexico - the Cartier Santos. You are very likely to see the Santos on the wrist in Mexico. It seems the Cartiers out number the Rolexes. I also deal with a guy that wears a Patek daily and his wife wears a Chanel with diamond bezel. I run into a few PAMs, but not many. I saw a nice fiddy yesterday in the Mexico City airport. The guy saw me checking it out and smiled. He then gave me a nod for my WM DRSD, which is curently beat to hell.

How about the boys from Argentina! Putting in 6 on that defense is very impressive.

Well, at least you managed to top yourself. We have it all wrong, Sadam and Castro for Sainthood! We should all be lucky enough to live under such stability. Maybe we can bring back the Communist Block as well. After all, all those people are too stupid for self determination. Why else would they have had the regimes they had? BTW, look up inalienable (sp?) and try to grasp the meaning. And next time, be smart enough to delete your absurdities when you sober up.

I didn't see the game and only caught the score. I thought it was a good game for the lads from England until I caught the highlights. It took 80 minutes to get a goal against T&T! England may advance, but it won't be long until the are back home.

I've been in Mexico and missed the last two games, for which I am very thankful. It is a series now, first to win 2. Hopefully the home wins continue and the Mavs take it in 7. I will be in Grand Turk on Monday, so I may have trouble finding the remianing games on TV, but I'm sure you guys will keep me posted. Go MAVS! Go USA tomorrow against Italy! They need all the help they can get.

I agree completely. There are way too many subs. Go for the SD or GMT.

It is hard to believe someone could actually hold such views.

I'm sorry Slay, but this is one of the most offensive post I've seen on these forums. Yes, Sadam kept the calm. He did it by killing everyone that didn't hold his views or openly support him. I'm not sure how you see that as a positive. Hitler also kept Germany stable and the trains running on time. How "stable" was Iraq for those that didn't support Sadam? What people deserves to be killed for their political beliefs? What people deserves to be starved to death because of the differing religious views? Who doesn't deserve the right to freely choose their political leaders? These are not "American" ideals. These are inalienable rights that every man posesses in spite of what you or his government my believe. There are many problems in Iraq, but no more people die today than under Sadam (check the numbers). However, every death is too many and we should do everything in our power to stop the madness, but at least now the people are free to make their own choices. Just as under Sadam, the madmen are still there killing. It is just now they are a different group of madmen that kill you because of your beliefs. Will Iraq be a success as a democracy? We should all hope so, but I still think the war was a mistake. Maybe Iraq should follow the path of many of the Eastern block countries that divided into ethnic/ religious groups to form separate countries.

I guess I was wrong about one thing, the MAVs can stop Shaq. Looks like all the Heat fans have done like Shaq in game 2 and disaapeared. GO MAVS!

As much as I would like to see England do well, they are still to suspect. Midfield is brilliant, forwards can be if they are in the mod, but everything behind the midfield is too suspect. If you review history, you would expect a European team to win as the have done every time in Europe with one exception but I'm not sure if anyone besides Germany or maybe Italy is capable. It does only take one team to win, though. Holland has the talent, as do Spain and France, but I don't see it happening for them. Of course, there is Brazil and Argentina has much to prove after the last WC debacle. The African teams will strugle with organization in the back and won't make it past the quarters. In the end, it looks like Brazil and Germany in the finals, but only time will tell.

90-80, MAVs lead 1-0. As Dallas showed in it's previous two series, losing game one means nothing.

The only problem with that logic is that oil has been running out for over 30 years. We've had 10 years remaining supply since the oil crisis in the 70s, at least according to some experts. The problem is that these experts view oil through the technoligical limits of the day and don't account for the fact that oil unavailable today, will be actively drilled in the future. It is certain that the world's oil supply will one day run dry, but I expect oil to be less than $30 a barrel at some point in the next 5 years. There are many political uncertainties that have contributed to the current rise in prices, but the market will eventually stabilize. I can guaranty you that the large oil companies do not expect oil to remain this costly, so the "hold it for a later day" logic doesn't work either. The thing we must never foget is that war is horrible and results in the deaths of far too many innocent people. As such, it should be entered only after all other options have been exhausted.

As posted before, I am very opposed to the war. However, if this is all about oil, which seems to be the premise of many that hold the same position I do, why is oil at it's highest cost ever (noninflation adjusted dollers)? If the US has "control" of such a great oil source, do you really think we would not flood the market with oil to reduce prices? Or is it part of the master plan for the oil companies to make more money?

That is an outright lie. I challenge you to prove that American Forces killed anywhere near that number from a legitimate news source. I am opposed to the war as much as you, but let's not play make believe. It only weakens your position when people point you out as some radical fool spewing made up information.

Remember, it isn't about stopping Shaq. He'll get his points, but will the team get enough to outscore the Mavs? In time, we will have the answer and all our speculation will matter not.

I am very much opposed to the war in Iraq, but I must disagree. How secure was Iraq for those that were out of favor with Sadam for whatever reason? He is a madman that killed his poeple at unbelievable rates and to even suggest that Iraq was a better place with him in power is borderline insane. His killing machine killed thousands upon thousands upon thousands of Iraqi citizens. Until the citizens of Iraq take control of the insurgents and stop this madness, it will never end. And herein lies the problem in my opinion. When you fight and give your own blood for freedom, you're more invested in the outcome. When an outsider comes in and imposes freedom, you do not have the same investment and the people of Iraq seem to lack the will or desire to stop the insurgency. It is a very terrible thing because they pay the ultimate price everyday with the lives of innocent civilians. Remember, the monsters from before the war are still monsters. They just don't answer to Sadam any longer.

You don't have summer in London, but it would be a great bike to own.

So will all the new GMTs come with triple lock crowns? That's what it looks like in the pics.
