Bad day today-- the dog is keeping clear of me.

They first wrote to Rolex but never received an answer.
Next they tried Omega but Omega wanted to be paid instead of becoming a sponsor.
Breitling wanted season tickets for John Travolta.
Oris wanted to change the team into an F1 crew.
Finally, scraping the barrel, they signed Ebel
