Looks great. When it gets too heavy to wear then you'll know you are not only retired, but old.

Someone on here once said, "either you rock the watch or the watch rocks you." You clearly are in the first category.

Grats on ten years of retirement, and grats on the Platona.

Nope, I'm right there with you, brother. Although I am still working a couple of other jobs for kicks.

Nope, and I was going to tell you not to wear that watch, John, but to send it to another retiree (me) to keep for you.

Didn't we meet at the Virginia GTG at the mall a few months ago? You brought all your watches.

Yes, we did and I did. That was shortly before you left for SD.

Most folks here just work so they can afford to keep buying more watches. It is a sickness after all.

Not only can you wear it during retirement but beyond as well. That's one thing I like about collecting watches, I can definitely bring them with me...
