I'm of to Italy on Saturday,

Hello all,

I am of to Italy on Saturday so I'm just letting folks know I won't be around for a week or so, I'm taking my SubcLV and will be taking many pictures of her in the sun

I'm slightly concerned about the fools in customs scratching my watch when it goes through the x-ray machine, If I find a mark, there will be hell up!!


See you all soon,
Dino

we have a good friend of ours, she is from Sicily also.

Italy is a cool place, we went to Milan for a weekend for my birthday last November. (i took the 116610LV as well )

so... if we dont hear from you in about a week... we should know what has happened at the airport....

Hey, not to worry about the X-ray machine. I suggest to get one of those oak watch vaults, very handy!

Have an awesome trip and have fun!

Just my humble opinion but you should worry less about scratches on your watch.

Where in Italy are you going ((I've been to Rome a few times and Milan). When I travel u have a 'man bag' with a small zipped section where I put my Rolex before the security XRay. I know, a man bag, but flying is the only time I use it!
