[QUOTE=Lisa;826950]David is letting me wear his. I like it but I really feel conspicuous when wearing it.



It's okay to wear clothes when wearing an Explorer II. :dummy: Not that I would mind.:read::chuckle:

I too like the 31mm as a good size for you Carolina. I tried to convince my wife of the same, but in the end, she wanted the 26mm.

Lisa 31 October 2008 12:57 PM

Carolina, it took me a while to find this - but I remembered around last Christmas Bo posted all of the Rolex dial selections for 2007. It has EVERYTHING and is a great reference...

My watch now is a 26mm, but I'm tall and I think the 31mm would be more balanced! :thumbsup:

Carolina,

I think you and my wife are the same age. In about 6 years, the date on a ladies size (26mm) watch may be difficult to read without glasses. I know, it's a harsh reality but it's true. I apologize in advance if I have hurt anybody's feelings.

Sad but true - that's why I like a bigger dial.

I don't recall putting a "fan" smilie in my post. And I do recall how farts and fans just pair so well together. :rofl:


Next time, I will post using a very large font! :twit:

Hasn't the frost taken care of all that allergy stuff?? :thinking:

I think I live in the allergy capital of the nation (or is it capitol)? :chuckle:

So you stands on the stool! My wives have gone from 5' to 6'. So the user of the stool changed from marriage to marriage.:chuckle::dummy::justkiddi

Capital. The "ol" refers to the building only, I think.

Oh, not to bore you with my ailments - but chronic sinusitis. Allergies make it worse, but it's always there.:banghead::banghead:Singulair helps a lot, though.

Not only do I own a double wide I got a cousin that is kind-a-like a pharmacist and can stop that sniffle. Boy, I am looking better every day. :dummy::chuckle:

Ha! Even with 3" heels, I'm still taller (6'3"). Makes fitting into Corvette Coupes very difficult, especially the C4's. Another reason I like the convertibles!

You must mean Everclear and Hawaiian Punch? At last, you've told me what I want to hear! I'll pack up right after trick-or-treating...:rofl::rofl:

I'm 6'2", when I stand up straight, and I hit my left knee on the pointed dash as I sit down 50% of the time. Man do the C4s ride low to the ground. A very deep door sill.:cheers:

I'm trying not to slouch so much these days...

Oh, and notice how since we haven't gotten our garage sticky, we're now hijacking this thread with car talk - take that mods!

Not nearly as tall as your wife - I'm 5'8"! If my husband doesn't slouch, he's about 6 ft. Wearing the three inch heels definitely helps remind him! :rofl:
Although I have annoyingly long legs, so I try to keep them around 2 inches.
