Spotted a well worn

I am om vacation with the family in Thailand, Ko Samui. One thing we do everyday is taking a massage at Urban Thai. This company is all over Thailand, franchising.

Yesterday we met the owner of several franchise of Urban Thailand. A very friendly French guy. Is been living in Thailand for the last ten years.

We started a conversation about the watches we were wearing. He had a DSSD, JC. I could it was well worn and asked him if I could take a picture of his watch.

I always enjoy to see well worn watches. He had it for a long time.

I love the look of well worn watches. Although I might consider sending in for a service to replace the pearl

End links are like this on this model, however the crownguards+crown look off, much too squished together.

Plus the fact that this was in Thailand

"He had it for a long time."

Only released in 2008, 14 years is hardly a long time.

I hope you're being facetious.

Something tells me that if you bought that watch at the massage parlor, you would not get a happy ending
