An ode to the soon to be departed.....

GMT2, you were a good friend and you will be dearly missed, words cannot express how your "colourful" personality brightened up my day. I loved how you were able to "dress" for any occasion. Goodbye my friend, but just that one day your child the mighty 116710 will be mine when she is born. Until then goodbye




Also I will never forget our brief time together Explorer, you were great at keeping a low profile, yet your beautiful face smiled and glowed at everyone who did notice you. You will be missed once you are gone.





This is what one must do when a new condo, new furniture and a new business venture takes a huge bite out of one's resources in order to.............




VISIT Mr Damiani himself



and end up looking like this



But most importantly, not have to pay a penny over list and also have the right name on the papers




due to all my expenses lately I am now selling off a couple of watches for now........... do you think its worth it? like I even had to ask.

Well Roger...as long as you're happy. You've attained the Holy Grail...now it will be just a matter of time before you can buy back some of your lost loves.

Good luck, pal.

Congratulations, Roger. Sorry you had to give up the GMT, but that Daytona is hard to pass up. Enjoy it and wear it in good health.
