I Guess I'll have to take up a new Sport

...To try out my new timing device that is.

Thanks for everyone's interest. Yep, I tasted the TRF Koolaid...

mmmmmmmmm....Yummy!

(Thank you DavidSW, this was better than an AD for Sure!!)

Now It's time to give the GMT a little rest.

Patrick! My man! I knew it! Don't fret about the other 2 lines, you'll look at the watch so often you won't notice them!

14060!14060!14060!

Thanks everyone. I am truly amazed how much I am digging this one. First Sub, and I will blabber later, but there are some things I am already liking a bunch. I can see why there is so much love for the older Subs. Not the same I know, but it sure gives you an idea.

Thanks again one and all..

Patrick, I think I may end up like you... I think, when I am ready to get my next Rolex, it'll be the 14060M!

Great minds think alike!
