NO!

The green one I actually won here on TRF about a year ago. Daren (dman) held a contest where his son picked the winner (I've actually forgotten what the contest was about now) and I won! Daren sent it to me, and it has become my favorite of the three caps.

The other two I bought on eBay for practically nothing. Try eBay - do a search for "Rolex caps" or "Rolex hats" and there should be some to choose from.

Hi Allan...what's cookin'?

Friday morning here and I leave for work in about 45 minutes. It's just past 6 am here.

Construction work on our "leaky" complex is on in full swing and we are almost HALF way there after just 6 months (work had commenced on 1st of May).

So hopefully, by next August it should be all over!!!

Hi JJ...just doing a little posting from work (a lull in the activity).

Glad to hear that the construction project is moving ahead well. I remember the photos you posted of that work. Good luck with the completion of that - sooner than later, of course!

Cheers, and as always, best to you and your lovely family!

Things are super busy for me at work and additionally some lady hit and totalled my BMW, so I have been dealing with all that. Ended up getting an Audi S4 instead - what a great vehicle!

Definitely enjoying the GMT - wear it every day!

Hope all has been going well for you too Allan. Nice hat!!

Man, I hear ya about busy at work!

VERY sorry to hear about the BMW, my friend. Not good. I bet you were not a very happy camper at that point!

Thanks for the kind words about the hat(s). Love 'em!

Cheers, and hope to see you around from time to time.

So...would the plan be to send the other 4 members the hat to wear for a week at a time or what, Robert?!?

EDIT: Oh, I see. Its a LOT of six hats. Never mind...

Count me in. I prefer black.

I don't have Paypal so I can't pay for it except by check, money order or cash.

Let me know if this happens. Unless you've been getting PM'd, we need four more members to participate.

My external Tina Fey link is broken now... I knew better. My bad, actually. Here's another stab at it... I still say the resemblance is arresting.

Well, let's put my avatar close to the image of Tina. What do y'all think? She is quite a few years younger than me!
