Well I'll be leaving

tomorrow to go on vacation for a week, so I decided I'll bring these 3. The rest will go in the safety deposit box...

The newest which just came in today:



The Seamaster:



And the Explorer:



I wish I could bring the Pepsi, but it's not running accurately. It'll need a service when I get back from vacation.

Going to Florida and on a cruise with my family, I think school starts the 8th. It starts a little late compared to some places.

Have a great trip. Though 3 watches for one week seems a bit overkill, no?

Hey little hopper, I'm only in Orlando for Saturday.

Call me on my cell during your stay if you need any help or if I have to bail you and your family out.

Hi Kyle!! Nice watches indeed to take in a trip, but my own experience as an experienced traveller, is to restrain my WIS spirit for a few weeks, and take only one, specially if I expect to buy something abroad, or in any case two at the most.
Too many valuable things to care for during a trip, complicates the enjoyment of the vacation.
Just a personal point of view, of course.

Anyway, should you take one or three watches, I wish you and your family will have a wonderful vacation, and enjoy so much your trip together!
Take care young friend!!
Kind regards, Abel.
