I think I'm anticipating your new watch, more than I do my own.

Please Sam, stop the torture!!!

What are you getting?!?!?!?

Sam, my friend, you don't need another "incoming" thread, you need an "outgoing" thread to free up some space :-)

Haha! You sound like my wife! In fact during dinner a few weeks ago Shannon and my wife labeled me the husband dust collector!

Mike, you have it the other way around! Take a quick look at my signature! Great pic!

Haha! All of you guys are great! I took delivery of my latest on Thursday and I am completely in with it... I will get around to posting the incoming sometime in a few XX hours or so... In the interim please enjoy some of these pics... ;-)

Earlier on today while flying to Mars... According to my wife that's where I'm from...


While at Rolex NY with my new beauty on arm, I saw this in display and thought Rolex started doing PVD, apparently my eyes were playing tricks on me!



Some very weird folks!


Love my ND Sub! Simplicity at it's finest! No nonsense, no glam (except the ceramic bezel), just a fantastic modern tool watch!




Sporting the Hodinkee Black Bay inspired tie from Drake's!


At the Hodinkee office very early in the morning, chatting with B.C.


Some Random Pics of one of some of my favorite ties! The watches are pretty cool as well..




Random pic...

Mike, the ZW is not mine... It is one of the many toys I get to play with when I am at the Hodinkee office...

For instance this very Rare Tudor specimen Eric Ku dropped off for us to marvel at...


The ZW mechanism is NO JOKE!
