New Arrivals!

Thanks to Alfred (aka FNFZ4) I'm now the proud owner of a Hulk and a Blue YM. The benefit of having a local seller like Alfred is I never have to wait impatiently for a Fedex van. All I have to do is send a short text asking him to source this or that and, BOOM, before you know it, we're meeting up. Unfortunately, now my wallet is trembling a bit.

Of course, here's a quick pic. Apologies for the poor lighting and iPhone photo skills.



And another of the boys and their new family. Although, I think the LM PO may soon be finding a new home.

Impressive collection.

Question. How on Earth do you decide which to wear?

Honestly, since I like a variety of dial colors, I usually try and pick one that best matches whatever outfit I'm wearing that day. I try and spread the love though, lol. And if watches aren't getting any wrist time it's typically a sign its time for it to find a new home.
