I know I will regret posting this later today....

Well, yesterday was a LONG day for me, got up at 4:30am for a full day at beautiful Cozumel. The day was great, 4 cruises in town and just....well....SPLENDID!




...so after my morning meetings, and a fantastic lunch at a new place one of my customers just opened on the island, I stopped by Cozumel's FIRST Starbucks. As I am sitting down, having a nice double expresso; I look out the window, and I realized I was just in front of Cozumel's AD: Ultrajewels/Ultrafemme





they just covered one of their windows with a Rolex ad



so I zoom in and think to myself: I have to take this pic; JJ is going to go bonkers and I will start ANOTHER thread with JJ's compliments and adoration for his watch.....hell....here it goes.



Enjoy!

TGIF

Thanks for the pics, it's almost like you fell upon burried treasure on a tropical paradise (with espresso)
I don't quite understand the ultrajewel/ultrafemme label, seems like some kind of ultracool speak

Beautiful. Since November 1st we have recorded 83 inches of snow with more on the way. Our average is 120 inches with the record being 167 inches 5 - 6 years ago. I'm jealous!

I'm still a newbie and will be attempting to post my new watch picture tonight; a TT GMT C that I wash like a baby daily (Is this normal?). Do I need a shrink?
