As the online resident non-Doctor, I forbid you to smoke it...I do, on the other hand, allow you to walk out with the magazine and light up a Cohiba while reading it...

oh and don't forget the beer and tequila!

That's funny, a year ago or so I was debating between a LVC and a Pepsi. When I was waiting in line for bbq, I saw a guy wearing a Pepsi shirt. I thought that was a sign for sure.!

Very nice! That could be!

I loved that watch in pictures, and still do. I tried it on at an AD and it completely fell flat on my wrist. I was so excited for it, and it did nothing for my wrist. And then it went back in the display case and looked magnificent again...

Yes, that is a big sign!

So, finish up your appointment, go directly to the nearest AD, bring the full page ad, buy the watch and take your new watch out to lunch/drinks/cigars! You need to let your new watch know the lifestyle it can expect from you from now on.

Lol, that's exactly what I did when I bought my YM. Saw it twice in back to back appointments in full page ads in travel mags then went down to nearest AD and bought it.

I thought you were going to say a sign for a nice Porterhouse or a nice tequila or a nice smoke or .... but not a Rolex ad.

It's a sign for a nice new Rolex, followed by celebratory drinks/dinner/cigars!

Does that watch really just have one lume marker? Shame.
