A confident presence without any need for affirmation : -)

Thanks, gents! I agree completely.

Great pic, Pete! Thanks for sharing it.







Fantastic pic, Lew! I really love the way this watch looks with long-sleeved shirts. Pure class.

Thanks!

Thanks, Dave! I agree with you...I owned the 36mm about ten years ago and I loved everything about it, but I just kept wishing it was slightly larger. This one is perfect for me; not to mention the beautiful matte dial...that was icing on the cake.
