Thanks, Sherri and you're right - just did a Google search which confirmed what you said.

lyonk, you may be too young to remember Muhammad Ali, formerly known as Cassius Clay. The man is known and famous for many things and I think this particular quote of his is very fitting:

What he said, congrats to Mr.Fuzzy (fits well with the season) and thanks to Ben for this very entertaining and educational give-away.

Whatmeworry's I got mail thread had me "worried"* and wondering when my lyonk-strap would show up.
Happy to report that I found it in our mailbox this evening so today is a double Good Friday.

You could have stopped just there, Teeritz.

Earlier in this thread I mentioned my diaries and in the cycling accidents thread I referred to a horrific car-crash in my past. The two are linked - I...

I saw this thread in the wee hours of the morning (ca 2 AM - don't ask) and wanted to respond, yet couldn't get to pen(s) and camera to write and take pictures, respectively.
Unlike most people I...

Congratulations (I think), Sherry :clap:

I really should swap, coming up on 2 weeks. It's always hard to take this one of my wrist - I could live with the...

All very true, but that's the twist with post #2 - the 3572.50 Speedmaster Professional has a hesalite on top, just like the original Moonwatch and a sapphire display-back, unlike the Moonwatch,...

I'm with Sherry - it's almost depressing to see how young most of you are ......

You leave me (almost) speechless. Congratulations, mlcor, what a marvelous addition this :clap:

Enjoy for many years to come (and keep the pics "flowing")

Yes, I do write with this pen every day, but it's very rare that I open this book* anymore:

One more vote for the Breitling.

Hands down.

No contest.

I do actually have them in one picture ..... really wanted the Portuguese Automatic, but wasn't sure I could pull it off. So went for a cheap replica - not completely identical, but close enough and...
