Honestly, what are you LUSTING for right now?

Hi guys,

The question is pretty straight forward....but whether you can afford it, or whether it's available....that's a different story.

I want each of you to reach deep down into your heart and answer this question very HONESTLY.

Which watch are you LUSTING for right now? The one you keep dreaming about...the one you'd buy in a flash if you had the cash?!

Mine would be the one Rev (Mark) has....that stunning SS WHITE DAYTONA. Yes, I'm lusting for one....but that's about it....can only dream about it in my present predicament!!

Cheers - JJ

Right now taking a serious look at white dial TT Yachty, black onyx markers, solid center links, new style Jubilee bracelet (I know it doesn't come this way). Of course the $$$ would have to be a great buy but, that's only a minor issue, right?

Now Mark. You KNOW that if you acquired that, you would lose the LV AND the Daytona. That's just the way these things work.

But... Lust away!!!

Well Mark think wifie would soon put a stop to that,but its perfectly fine to just dream.Stick to the car far less of those around,and almost as much pleasure, and in the long term don't cost as much.

I've often been tempted by the Patek Officers 5022.

Mark,
The life of the bedroom retirement is short,
however the payment for that experience is extensive.
Just take her for a ride in your Bentley.

I've got NOTHING on the radar as I'm totally satisfied with what I have.

That said, a PAM210 would be a nice addition. :~)
