I do solemnly confirm, with this photo submission, to be my own watch, on my own wrist, showing the true date and time of Tuesday Oct. 9, in full accordance with the "Truth in Posting" guidelines established herein.

P.S.: This was my late Grandfather's Seiko, he purchased it in Paris France in the '80's. It is the only watch in my collection that shows both the day and date. It is also the only one that is not flippable under any conditions. Doesn't get my wrist time, but what the hey, it has a piezo alarm I can use to drive the dog nuts.

As the creator of the TRF Attestation

Clearly, I agree!

ATTESTATION:

October 8th, 2012

Dear Reader....

I hereby attest that I have personally taken this photo, on the date so noted above, and that said watch is indeed my watch, residing on my wrist. I have a valid yet out of date warranty card, as well as all the accoutrements which came with this watch when originally purchased, whether or not I ever use, look at, or even know where they are any more. I declare that the above statement is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge.

Sincerely,

Grissom

What if my comment attests that I shall not respect this rule?

...Did I just post a paradox? Robots, please do not read this!
