This was unbelievable, in Tucson sitting at the airport

I was messing around with my watch looking at the clasp. And I've had the 116619 for like 2 years I think,
and I noticed this.



This was what I saw, the pic below





I'm like, what a rookie mistake. The whole case back has it too along with the underside of the clasp.

Great game
McKale is a great place, sorry about your Rebels...kind of. Cats are tough to beat at home. The good news is you got your watch sorted out. I'll be in Red Rocks next week. Climb in the day, watch window shop at night.

That's funny Mark. The last sticker I found (at least I think so) was on the Rolex crown on the bracelet clasp. When I peeled it off it retained the perfect shape of the crown...very cool looking.

It took me weeks to find all the stickers on my first Rolex.

Beautiful watch you have. Love the warmer white gold sheen.

That's what you get for not loading up on margaritas while you were there; if you'd been doing the right thing you'd never have noticed. I've spent a lot of time in that airport; my old stomping grounds.

I have an idea !! Maybe they should serve alcohol at the games in Arizona. No alochol in the Calfornia School System either. In Kansas at University of Kansas, I snuck my own bottle in, this game in Tucson the wife was with me and I didn't want to be seen on TV pouring anything into a soft drink cup since we were on the floor she would've went ballistic if I was caught.

In Las Vegas its a free for all during sporting events


Strange thing is, I've washed this watch like 100 times in the shower and have used Veraet a few dozen times.
