Didn't I already say to stop this crap? 6 points - it seems that's the only language you guys understand.

Alexander, your place is safe because bad guys don't like to be stuck on the traffic on the 91, it is too easy to get caught! :-)

My house is in the San Bernardino mountains. Just as safe there too. Some years back the biggest crime of the year was two newspapers stolen out of the machine one Sunday. Then again we have bears that walk the street. Bad guys tend to not like those either.

Yes, Robert, that bad thing about Southern California. More people like to live here that why we have more car on the road. We have good weather most of the time, not to hot, not to cold and no humidity. My wife whose came from Laos seven year ago want to see the snow. I told her that look at the mountain. I believe is San Bernardino mountains which has snow on the top of the mountain during this time. I believe you really miss your home now. I was lucky that when I travel and some time underway with NAVY ship on my job is only week or two at the time. And the most is only few month on the road. Some time I hear sailor that I work with complain about their job. I alway told them that they are really lucky to serve in NAVY at this time. Compare to Army and Marine, which most of them have to be on the war zone. Well good luck and happy New Year to all of you out there.

LOL I knew it, at first I saw your sig and location, I thought to myself, "That's guy has to be U.S. Army. Tajikistan?"

Believe me, I spent more time in Sheraton Waikiki more than my own home. But, nothing like home. One good thing though. That where I got my Daytona SS right in front of my Hotel. Because I stop by to check my favorite watch so many time. I end up get to know a sale lady. And just last month she called and got me a black dial. She will try to get me another one maybe a white dial.

Thank goodness I live in Scotland.
Not saying no crime, but distinct lack of Gang Culture.

You have bagpipes. That's cruel and unusual punishment here.

Thankfully (?) my wife likes to shop so I never have to go there. Malls and department stores are not my scene.

I live in a major city in a very nice neighborhood. I never lock my front door or set my alarm. I have a neighbor who lives a block away. She won't leave the house without setting her alarm, I think she sets it when she is home. She is also married and has 5 kids and a dog, so she not living alone. I guess everyone lives with a different amount of fear in the same situations.

I'll be in San Francisco this weekend. What's your address?

I've had a 9mm pointed at my face once while living a nice neighborhood in Houston, the guy just wanted my Carrera. Told him he can have it, its fully insured. They found it a few days later on the freeway. Just took it for a joy ride. I still wouldn't carry a gun or worry about anything like that. As far as home security, my 9lb miniature schnauzer will take care of security :)

The two Weimaraners will probably want to play fetch with any burglar though :)

cheers

This forum is about watches, not guns. Everyone can take their own protective measures, probably best if they keep that private, as we are all in different situations and it is impossible to judge another by ones own personal circumstances.
I can't recall and discussion about watches in this thread so it's now going to be closed.
