Now I feel like an idiot. Who is that? Sure looks like an old expat beast! It also looks like someone who would dish unbiased knowledge all day on the masses...so you picked a great avatar

I wonder if people see my avatar and think...who is tom running from and how did he escape that oven???

Haha. It's the film director John Huston wearing an Oysterquartz.

I am indeed an expat, but not really old nor very beastly.

if you have to engrave the case back to help convince yourself to keep the watch, you must not like it all that much!

Make the decision to keep it, no matter what else catches your eye!

My father and grandfather had matching 18038's and as he got older (and less aware) my father had his engraved with his name, phone number and SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER! I now have the engraved watch and admit it adds a special little something sentimental...........if your really gonna keep this watch and pass it down, engrave something special...........
