    Ooops - I've broken my 'rule' for 2010

    I now have a watch incoming - my first 'vintage' - pics to follow - but won't be in receipt until after the weekend - thanks tz and Eddie!

    Now - how much is a divorce settlement these days

    When the wife has finished beating you around the head and you have retired to the computer wondering what to do, PM me if you decide to sell that B1 beauty :D

    Let's see some pics when the new one lands please.

    About the same as a good watch collection... not sure that'd be a valid argument from her point of view though...

    My wife thinks all my watches look the same so I'm safe as long as I don't stray too far from stainless steel black faced watches.
