Thank you so much - that's delightful. I am pleasantly surprised to see that Americans have such a fine sense of irony! And yes, the weather in Sydney is very nice. I hope it is the same where you are.

All is well in the Americas no complaints at all... Herodotus stated - "If a man insisted always on being serious, and never allowed himself a bit of fun and relaxation, he would go mad or become unstable without knowing it". I trust that you are a good person so though your response was passive aggressive I will just wish you well!

I know. I am presently shopping for first Rolex. Can post Panerai, Breitling, etc, but thought that would be off colour for the venue!

Reminds me of my motorcycling crowd. Some bikers snub at non-Harley bikes and their riders. Not me. It's their appreciation of being on a two wheel machine and appreciating that mode of transport that makes a biker, say versus, a commuter.

Just because one has a watch doesn't make one a WIS. I've heard there are some that wear a watch to actually tell time. But, our affliction can manifest itself in a number of strains.

Same here, it's about the art behind the machine, no matter whether it's a watch, car, motorcycle, etc. Although I will say most H-D riders don't respond to a nod when I'm riding my Aprilia or Kawasaki....
Anyway, I now have a Rolex to go with my swag! Woo hoo! I just need to get it on my wrist.....

You keep nodding, Brother. You may run into someone like me that'll either wave or have nodded/waved first :)

As not all Rolex wearers are male appendages, not all Harley riders are sphincter muscles (well, about being courteous anyway).

Congratulations! Post your Rolex wrist shot when you can.

In the interim, ride and shoot straight...

The nice thing is that you title them accordingly and folks can skip or participate. If no one participated, then one could surmise that you're wasting time and storage.
So, thanks.

Like FremStar, my SWAG are my hats...(most all Australian Akubra) and baseball. Prob only things I have more of, collectively, than watches. Really not that many...just stating I like these things. We, I did collect Buck knives. So have those too.

At 54 yrs and being in IT...SWAG to me is a Sophisticated Wild Ass Guess ;)
That wouldn't be an 81 Frisco hat would it, support or otherwise???
