Dangerous Forum

Well I've had my 14060M for about 4 weeks & now have a 16610 coming next week, I have to say I really missed the date feature, having said that I don't think I want to flip the no date. While I love this forum for it's great info it is terrible for my bank account.

I do like the clean look of the dial but will have to see how much wrist time it gets when the 16610 arrives.

Welcome to TRF, DJD. And not only is this forum terrible for your bank account, it is also more addictive than smack or crack. You are now officially hooked. And there is no known cure for this addiction.
