    Traveling Watch

    To celebrate IWL'S 1st yr anniversary Mark aka pepperami purposed a way to celebrate it w/ a traveling watch.
    What a great idea BTW.

    I , as well as others offered up a piece & I thank you all for letting me have the honor.
    I offered 1 of my late Best friends pieces to honor him by. He would of loved to see 1 of his pieces travel the world & would talk about this for years to come.

    A little backround about Bob Powers- He was a retired Chicago Police officer, ex DEA & undercover agent as well,he gave his entire life to serving 1 way or another. A BEST FRIEND that 1 could EVER ask for.

    He was a true WIS ,while he couldn't afford some of the "Brands" we all love & collect he still collected what he liked & lived vicariously through mine & others collections on the forums.He was also an avid bike rider, between the watches & the bikes that's how we vastly became friends.

    Some rules will apply here;
    #1- you must be an active member here w/ @least 100 posts to participate.
    #2- try to include a state memento/trinket when you send it to the next in line.
    #3- You have to post a pic on this thread once you receive it. (Let's get Bob around the globe.)
    #4- I get the watch back & afterwards I do a PAY IT FORWARD GIVEAWAY here.

    Again Ladies & Gentleman Thank You for letting me kick this off.
    I'm sending it to Jeannie 1st


    I'm honored to be a part of this AWESOME Community.
    Happy Anniversary IWL
