Most of us know that they are fakes. Just take a close look at the pics & it's pretty obvious! However, I chose to be a bit nicer about it. Who knows - they may be genuines (Yeahhh right!).

An SS Sub date w/ blue dial & blue bezel & PCls - either custom or fake - I chose to give the OP the benefit of the doubt. I was being very nice!

After looking through all of these posts I can see all of you are indeed hard working folks. I am an ASCP certified Lab Tech. I was doing contract work in this field until the "bottom" fell out of the economy. I'm 42 and have a 21 y/o son. I have a 1665 Double Red SD from 72'. I always say....."Lab Tech's make doctors look good" since 70% of all their decisions are based on lab results. Here is an example of what I look for in the lab. Whats wrong with this picture?? Maybe adam78 will chime in...

Go fish, its not cancer. If your looking at the early neutrophilic myelocyte (showing dawn of neutrophilia) its because of a "shift to the left".

No, not really!
I'm a strategy specialist, currently working in Banking. I have a DJ1601 from my father and an SD which I recently got after years of putting it off.

I wouldn't say I'm anywhere near as good a fit for my SD as you though

Learn something new everyday. Got any more for another thread? I thought I was watching cell mutation and replication going on there.

No problem Doc. Thats why they pay me the big bucks. So I can forward the results to the Pathologist.....they forward the results (that I found) to the primary physician (YOU) and then you get to walk in and tell the patient. See....I make you look good. That way you can go buy that Rolex you always wanted.

I'm just a loxmyth, but I DID stay at a Holiday Inn Express!

The way you say it is oddly funny, as opposed to "haha" funny.

My dad was just a PharmD and said he helped "practitioners" by checking for adverse drug interactions before dispensing.

There would have been a few (instantly!) dead people if it wasn't for his keen eye, and questioning ways, at his counter.

Just a guess here, but I'd be willing to bet that ticks are the single most dangerous animal native to the US.
