I've been meaning to ask: what is that Phish watch as your avatar pic? Did Trey have those custom made during the SOTG tour?

Bulova Quartz T9. These were gifts from Phish to their employees after the 1998 Tour. There were 50 made and were given out at Madison Square Garden on 12/31/98.

I called Betsy at APSC and asked her to delay your watch. Better get that PP now.

Do it! Perhaps a Nautilus or an Aquanaut.

Very cool. Were you one of these employees? If so, even cooler.

Oh yeah, and get the Nautilus!

Buying a new piece while another is at the spa is the right thing to do.

I don't know.. Like you guy's, I also thought I needed a Patek to complete the collection and accompany my AP's, etc.

I think they are terribly overpriced, and weren't 'so special' in person, we are talking those in my budget (5712, 5980 pre owned, 5711) not the super duper rarities of course :)

Which Patek would you be interested in? I personally love the 5980 but not much else.
