Hi Larry. No one LIVES in L.A.! Unless you live in a loft at the Staples Center. They all commute there! Where are you in LA specifically? I grew up there.

Hi astcell - I live in Pacific Palisades - and yr. right, it's not really L.A. In fact I try not to even visit L.A. unless there's good reason.
Thanks for blowing my cover pal!

Hello Larry, and welcome to TRF. Enjoy your time here. Do you have any watches? And do you have pics of them? We love watch photos...

Hi Prince, I'm slightly slow in getting set up to post pics, but it's on my definite to do list in the near future.

Right now my collection includes:
Rolex gold & steel sub, bl dial, Datejust white dial gold & steel, steel Daytona.
Cartier Pasha steel W/ black dial, Omega planet ocean w/ orange bezel (corny, but I like it) a couple a Panerai marinas, one steel, one titanium. Love 'em all, but love Rolex the most!
Oh yeah, also a steel oyster perpetual sub. black dial ,no date. And I'm lovin' the no date. It is such a pure strain of Rolex...
This group has taken me 7 years to assemble, a lot of budgeting, planning and searching. In a good year I would buy 2 or 3, in a not-so-good year maybe a Swiss Army. I like them also...

Fantastic collection of watches, Larry! I especially like your lineup of Rollies - good taste for sure. I've got a very similar collection - all Steel & Gold: Blue Sub/Champagne-dialed Daytona/Champagne-dialed Datejust, and a Rootbeer-dialed GMT Master II arriving on Monday.

Take your time with the pics - we will enjoy them whenever they arrive!

I think very highly of the name Larry. It's one of those names that you can sort of yell/whine. Larrrr-reeeey! Because of this I recomend it any time one of my friends or collgeagues has a baby, or gets a new pet.

I also knew a guy who would always explain that his name was "Larry with a Y". I guess it's kind of like Mark with a C = Marc???
