    Do they sell genuine fake leather straps, too?

    When I travel across time zones, my go to watch is the WWII 24-hour G.C.T. pocketwatch. Since it's set to G.C.T. I don't have to reset it. Good to go!

    We're going to Paris, city of culture and romance. Home of the Louvre, the Pompidou Centre and the Eiffel Tower. One of the world's most vibrant and richly textured cities.

    More specifically, Disneyland Paris.

    That's three too many to get the Only One Watch credit. Sorry.
