Mine was a 1996 Corvette Collector Edition badge for a long time because I have one and just needed something. But I recently changed it to a memorial patch for Chris Kyle and Chad littlefield because they need to be remembered and the media let the story die after a week.

Sub-Mariner comic book character. Loved the comics as a kid. I remember the first time I saw the Rolex Submariner as a teenager I thought it was named after the comic book character and I kept looking at the watch in the display window trying to figure out what the link was. At the time, I did not know about the 007 link. To me, to comic book character is even cooler!

Created mine based on my Rolex and local landmarks in my area. Just seemed fitting and unique.

Ronald Ulysses "Ron" Swanson is a fictional character played by Nick Offerman from "Parks and Recreation". In the series Ron is the director of the parks and recreation department of Pawnee, Indiana and the immediate superior of Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler). A staunch libertarian, Ron is a strong advocate for small government and believes that the parks department should not even exist. Yet paradoxically he still works for the government and collects a paycheck.
In real Life Nick is a master carpenter and an avid Scotch aficionado and married to Megan Mullally. I've always thought she was hot. So basically I want to be an amalgamation of Ron and Nick, I figure He does as well...

i fell in love with racing, watches/timing because i'd stay up until 3AM or wake up at 5AM to watch F1 races and stare at the TAG Heuer or Longines stop wtches running throughout the races... senna was why i became passionate about F1 and watches. i'd always want to stay close to the art and passion of racing, so i got my first tag heuer 1000 in the mid 80's. rest is history...

Mine is a picture I took of a baby monkey living in the workshop I visited in India a few years back. There was a whole bunch of them in and around the workshop which had no doors. Apparently they stole your tools if you left them unattended.

Right now I'm recycling old photos of me in my avatar every couple months. The current one was taken in a northern Minnesota lake in the early 1970s.

Mine is the insignia of my rank at my PD prior to retirement, I spent my last 4 years or so as a Sgt. hence the Sgt chevrons.
