The nerve of some people...
Many of you know that I let a buddy borrow my Hulk for a few months on a trial run. Unfortunately, the green didn't grow on his wife. Anyway, I got the watch back yesterday and was very disappointed. I know what you're thinking. No, the watch wasn't damaged. No scratches. Actually, it looked like he never wore it. It was also packed very well. However, he didn't have the time and day set. How RUDE!!! Inexcusable!!! just kidding!! Lee (aka Makau) is a great guy and I'm just busting his chops.

I'm personally offended that someone would treat you and your watch that way, Chad!

I know you're kidding, but my top 4 favorite are the Platona, Smurf, Hulk, and Yachtmaster.

Seriously?

You have a collection that cost more than a small Central American country's defence budget and you have something from the Wal-mart bargain bucket in the same shot?

Dude.............

Inconceivable!

Give the Hulk and bath, put it on, share a glass of wine and never lend it out again.

Can't wait to see it in Vegas again next year!

Chad- Do Not lend him any of your watches. Unless you want them photographed with large pieces of rare meat, lobsters or other exotic foods!

You've no idea how much I'd love to come to the Vegas GTG but with a one year old (and a wife who rolls her eyes and switches off when I talk about watches) it's looking more unlikely than ever.

Soooooo.......you're saying WAL mart garage hooks aren't the best way to display my collection? They're rubber coated for no scratches.
