    finally!

    yes, after all these years, I finally have an Airforce III inbound! They say good things are worth waiting for, well, I've certainly waited for this one - 14 years.

    Re: Ball Watches... As good as they sound?

    Only BaIl I've owned was this 40mm Fireman (no longer in production I believe). Excellent build quality and kept exceptional time:

    Have used them, and they certainly do the job, but I find them messy to use and I dislike the smell. "Hero" guitar cleaning cloths (I get mine from the local guitar shop) do the same job without the...
