No one knows what Carl looks like?

Are you like the Polkaroo Carl?

Very mysterious!

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 08:42 AM

Sorry Wes, I though you were from Australia. Is Essex in the UK? I think I was mistaken.

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 08:46 AM

Lisa, my friend in NC bought a Datejust. He has skinny wrists for a man. The watch had to go to Rolex so they could laser a link off. :-O Was so weird. LOL He likes his watch snug so maybe that was an issue too. They did a great job and he's been happy with it.

My bracelet is much shorter on the 6 o'clock side than 12. I didnt get to the store today, hopefully tomorrow. Im getting used to it now. Its not loose like a bracelet, loose enough it sits on my wrist bone. Looking forward to the pics.. thanks! :-)

I had to Google that name and no, I am not like that at all!

I'm just a bit complexed about my looks...people tell me I look like an actor but believe me, it's not always a compliment...

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 08:50 AM

Okie dokie..iPad has 25% charge on it. LOL Gonna take a walk around before I head home. TTYL all..

Lisa · 13 August 2013, 08:50 AM

Do the links in your bracelet hang like this? The six o'clock side is on the right. The clasp ends up right in the middle of my wrist this way.

Lasered off a link? Whew! Our AD did that for me with my old DJ. It had the older style jubilee bracelet, which couldn't be made small enough for my wrist, either, without cutting off a perm. link. However, the new jubilee with hidden clasp fits just by taking out all of the removable links. Hope the shop can set you up with a comfy fit.

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 08:56 AM

Lisa thats exactly like how my watch is. Its not uncomfortable and I can live with it if thats how it is. If the shop can even the links out somehow it would be a bit more comfy. :-)

I looked back a few posts and saw that your shop guy took out three links, all from the same side. I think he'll easily be able to get you a good fit by adding/subtracting links from each side. And as Wes said, there are special size links that can be added to give you a better fit. Good luck at the AD tomorrow, and enjoy your walk! I need to get some dinner going myself!

Lisa · 13 August 2013, 09:08 AM

Carl, I'm sorry the watch delivery will be delayed until tomorrow - how disappointing! But does it help to know that you can look forward to it a while longer? Nope, probably not.

Once again the question arises... what DOES Carl look like? Here's my wild guess... Maybe without the tats?

Actually it does help and I don't mind that much as I find this quite exciting!

In all honesty the most stressful part was thinking about buying it, there were other members watching the item on the Bay and I was hoping nobody would buy it before I get the funds together. I then dared to make an offer and after receiving a counter offer from the seller (a reasonable one in my opinion) the deal was done!

...As for the picture, I'm afraid I cannot say I look like this man. I hope you are not too disappointed (if you found that man handsome...

).

Lisa · 13 August 2013, 09:53 AM

Hmm... must do more research. Don't you have a beard? And dark hair?

More like brown hair. As for the beard, it's quite a funny coincidence as I shaved it earlier this evening...I always let it grow a bit though.

EDIT: Oh, and I don't have hipster glasses...

Hmmmm... are you in the witness protection program? LOL

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 10:34 AM

Carl...point us to a decade at least.. how old are you?

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 10:35 AM

I had a relaxing afternoon. :-)

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 10:38 AM

Im so green at this picture thing here. Can everyone see my photobucket library?

If so, so much for not being public.

Ooops..I almost wrote pubic..

NOOOOO you aren't gonna find pics like that on Photobucket.

My age is far from being a secret so allow me to say that I am 23 years old.

Lisa, I just noticed that the name of the picture you just posted was "hipster"...do you really think I am one!?

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 11:16 AM

23? that's why you are so in love.

Wow..you are a young guy. Ahhhh..

Coffee from Aroma.

TY once again for the watch compliment. :-)

Aroma? Never heard of that...must be an Ontario thing...

Close enough on the reason why I am so much in love, I am indeed but it's not about flowers, teddy bears and chocolates as we'll celebrate our fifth year together next month (we've known each other for seven years).

...And please don't call me "kid", however young I may be!

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 11:24 AM

How about young man? ;-)

Aroma is a chain out of Isreal believe it or not. They make great coffee. :-)

Congrats on being together for 7 yrs. :-)

Well you do learn something new everyday, thank you for the information.

Young man will do...that or your excellence...

And thank you, we do have a lot of fun together, she is my very best friend.

vitalsignsrn · 13 August 2013, 11:47 AM

your excellence?

Can I just call you Carl?

Ahhh.. that's sweet being with your best friend. That's an awesome feeling.

Lisa,
We do tend to think alike. I would totally pic this guy as Carl's doppelgänger.

dbelle7 · 13 August 2013, 12:24 PM

Pick. Not pic. I can't type on my iPad !

dbelle7 · 13 August 2013, 12:33 PM

Carl,
My eyes are violet if you we're wondering. Hehehe Ok, hazel-ish.

I'm sorry, my dear Carl. In my advanced years I tend to think of anyone younger than 35 as hipsters.

Did not mean to offend you!
