From none to 2 watches
I told my wife when we met ten years ago that my vision for when I had "made it" was walking on the beach, picking up seashells wearing a Rolex.
A couple days ago I realized it was time, bought a 14060M from motomc1 and a ladies datejust with diamonds from jvmartin, and have a house by the beach. Not to get too wordy, but I thought long and hard about doing this. Mechanical watches are the embodiment of all the hard work and passion that goes into them, and are an extension of the vitality of the wearer. If the wearer stops moving, dies, they fade away and stop ticking just like the owner. That's why I bought Rolexes. |

Hey, thanks for the interest.
Taking the next step in my business plan. I am going to make men's fitness clothing, I have a whole initial lineup planned out. The brainstorming phase is over, now it's on to the design and prototyping phase. |
