Icon6 Choosing a Wife

A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing among three likely candidates. He gives each woman a resent of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money.

The first does a total make-over. She goes to a fancy beauty salon, gets her hair done, new make-up and buys several new outfits, then dresses up very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed.

The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much

Again, the man is impressed.

The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the $5,000. She gives him back his $5,000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she loves him so much.

Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he'd given her.

Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs.

Men are like that, you know.

Well be sure to keep us posted. We SD guys have to stick together. There've been a lot of GMT IIs, SS Daytonas and Blue Subs coming on board lately. If we're not careful, we're going to be surrounded!

LOL! Too true, Downing. I noticed that there's a whole lot of Subs, GMT IICs and Daytonas popping up these days, but not many SDs.

BTW, can I use your "SD Owners Group" Pic?

It WILL be a Sea Dweller

It has to be a Divers and I’m not keen on the Cyclops and like the idea and history behind the SD so the Sub is ruled out.

The SD is the Daddy of all Dive watches which other companies have tried to emulate IMHO.

James, you are more than welcome to use the "group" pic. Allan ("Prince") generously made it for me right after I got my SD. He made my avatar, too.

I think he said the photo of the watch came Larry or Mike, I can't remember which. In any case, I'm all too happy to share so if anyone else wants to grab it by all means feel free.

Claude, your reasoning for the SD is the same as mine. I almost went for the Sub ND, though, as I don't really need the date complication. In the end, though, it was the cahones mucho grande of the SD that won my heart.
