Icon20 This is TOO tense!!!!

Well, because of business issues I had to be @ Cozumel today, so after 4 meetings I decided to walk to the local AD. There were 7 ships in town (er...cruises), so Cozumel was a busy spot.

I walked into UltraFemme (local AD) only to find:

-PLENTY of new 2T GMT's
-PLENTY of LV subs
-PLENTY of SS watches (GMTs, Subs, EXPs)
-Nice selection of gold watches

...and my sales girl with 'the daytona you are looking for....we got it' (no, not a SS, but a YG on strap). Discount: over 20%.

This has been an 'expensive' month so I have to wait at least 3 days...men, I HATE THIS. I do not know if I will go for it; it is tempting but I have to 'consult'

Well....just reporting from this part of the planet. Spring Break (easter) is BIG here, so the AD had stocked on everything. News: Another dealer @ Cozumel carries Vacheron, Corum, IWC, Breitling, Genta, Lacroix and GP!

The good news: I behaved. The bad news: I have to be back @ Cozumel in a week.

Rolex knows where all the money is! That's why Cozumel gets that many Rolex's. Bah Humbug!

I don't know about most of you but... I'd settle just to be in Cozumel.

It may seem like I'm doing nothing but, at a cellular level, I'm actually quite busy...

Hahahahaa Gerardo - get the Daytona! You know you want it! Maybe pick up a new TT GMT while you are at it - that would be a great pair!

Don't fight it, Gerardo. You know you want it, man.

OTOH, you can be strong like. I can resist anything - except temptation.

Go for it (esp. at 20% off - you can't lose).

Island off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula (think Cancun) in Mexico that has some fantasic scuba diving. I'll be stopping there for a coupe of days during my honeymoon in August!
