Welcome Pete. My 15 year old tells me "It's only a watch Dad" and my 14 year old daughter asks "Do they come in pink?"

Thanks for the kind welcome. Yes I'm a student pilot, I want a Rolex Air King, I think it looks cool and would be a cool flying watch other than a Bretling. For some reason whenever I see a Rolex, I always think of how much a person has worked to be able to get that watch, I think of a Rolex as a symbol of hard work and effort and a reward for yourself.
