    Possible TZ member In Watchworks Bristol today?

    Went into watchworks earlier this afternoon to pick up a watch and the customer in front of me had a lovely Dornbluth and wondered if it was a fellow Tz member as they had a couple of other watches also?

    We need a TZ sign or gesture that would only be recognisable to a fellow TZer in these situations but not too weird to make them phone the Police if they aren’t.

    Can I suggest something along the lines of Alf Ippititimus - Wu-hey!

    Could be passed off as a nervous tic if not reciprocated.

    Badges? We don't need no stinking badges...

    Carl (GGB) used to have a nice line in subtle badges which reflects his brand.



    I've always thought Eddie could have done something similar with his brands. I've always liked a nice badge.

    PS: Yes I have seen the The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, so no need to quote it's only famous line.

    Most certainly when overshadowed by a 48.5" waist.

    Must be the one on SC. They knew they were clocked and so embarrassed they're being rid of it.
