Another One Bites The Dust!!!

Using my 4000th post to announce that I have again traded away one of my watch family for another new timepiece. The new one is very different from any that I have had before. It is actually something that I have said that I am not the biggest fan of. Yet at the same time, the first time I saw this watch in the flesh, I was in lust!!

It is a durable and versatile watch, and I am excited to add it to the two that I have left. What is it you ask?.............................
































It doesn't arrive until tomorrow at noon so if I have to wait, so do you.

The guys that know, SHUT UP!!

How about a hint. At least give us a calibre number.

I'll tell you this, it is a chronograph and even though I am not a fan usually, this one had me by the short hairs the first time I laid eyes on it.

Process of elimination tells you the 111. He said that his 88 is away at the spa and he has to be "content" to wear his YM. I'd be content with that also. Can't wait to see what it is Daren.

Hey, the waiting can't be worse than what I am going through.

I am just having to be content with my YM today and tonight since the 88 is away at the spa too.

Daren, didn't I read some where you can't do what you just did ? As you read further down the penalty is which gets you to and tell us what your new watch is going to be.

I know exactly which member of the family is gone, and what the new member is, and to use a JJism, "it's a cracker of a watch!"

However, I'm sworn to secrecy until the official unveiling.
