Hahahahahaha! Carl, it's only right Kanye grants her a pair! His product placement skills are second to none! Only wish he commissioned Nike to make more pairs for sneaker fans around the world to enjoy!

Shout out to Sam

Ok, not a Rolex, but it's what I'm wearing today. NBA Jam on the iPad during a conference call. Apologies for the crap iPhone photo.

This one is for you, Sam! Boom shaka laka!

It's not as good as the arcade or console (mainly comes down to gameplay/controls), but it'll do. Current players and classics as well (Ewing, Tim Hardaway, etc etc).

I'm so bad at defending on that game I always time my jumps too late and give away points for goal tending

Very nice and welcome to TRF!!! Almost had me with the Beckett re-issue of the Jordan rookie card ... Kind of looks like my man-cave at home ;-) Thanks for sharing!

Yeah I'm on about the Amiga 500. The CD32 was the Original 32 bit CD-ROM console I believe and like you said didn't do all that well

Yomiuri Giants lid. Called, by some, Tokyo Giants. Japan's love 'em or hate 'em team.

Also, a pendant resembling the back case design on Seiko Divers.

Nice to be wearing one of my two Rolex watches after a five week Seiko Monster fetish. True here that absence made the heart grow fonder.

Great looking combo you're rocking there, FremStar !
Might have to get me one of those Minsai bracelets.
One question though, is there risk of scratching when wearing watch and bracelet like that ?
