It's why I'm not married and date a Brazilian 20 years my junior. My buddies tell me not to look a gift horse in the mouth

I heard a funny quote not too long ago:

"Marry Brazilian, eat French, and drive German."

I'd only add..."wear Swiss" to that.

Been there often!

I had an old T-bird, but quickly realized two-tone wasn't for me.

Yeah, the one I wanted with the blue Buckley looked beautiful contrasted with the yellow gold. The dial was flawless. Saw an 1803 with the same dial. Looked great. I love the Buckleys
