SOTC

I remember you having Nomos, Sinn... Flipped?

Edit: Ha, just read your comment on yesterday's WRUW.

Yes, my Nomos Club and Sinn 103 are off to Germany - or will be when the FedEx man picks them up on Monday. I’m glad to have had the Club, having eyed it from the day it was introduced, but was ready for it to go. My fascination with Glashütte is set aside until my lottery numbers come up! My fascination with Frankfurt never ran so deep.

"Three? three! That's barely a number at all. Good God man, I've had more wives than that!

Flipper!

I’ve only had two, but your talents are more various than mine.

I think your current 3 are all excellent and not the usual suspects either.

I started out with bright red G-Shocks and then went through the seven ages of wristwatch fascination, and then you end up somewhere.

I started out with a modded Seiko Orange Monster. I've owned a bunch of fun watches since, I only regret selling a single watch in the last 6-7 years/dozens of watches.

I had thought of losing the Hawkinge too, but it refused to leave home.

That's just about the craziest thing I have ever heard. I still don't know why I haven't bought one of those yet.

[Seriously]

I can’t remember exactly. Around six in number probably, including the three I still have.

I’ve had the Datejust four years, the Explorer two, and the Hawkinge about two-and-a-half.

I remember it well. I was recovering from a ruptured Achilles’ tendon. My wife was taking care of me, making sure I didn’t do too much. My wife was out for the day. I drove 150 miles to Lymington to buy a Rolex.

That was a good day.

And that proves watches are actually our real Achilles' tendon.

Oh, I get it.

You’ve gone back through my posting history to see if my 4, 2 and about 2.5 was correct.

You’ve discovered that 2 should have been 1.80.

To save you further effort, 4 should have been 3.94 and about 2.5 should have been 2.59.

Jesus wept.

No, I just went looking for a previous SOTC from you
and all there seemed to be were vague hints towards the STOYI (the state of your illness)


Your watch illness obviously

While I'm not an expert here, I can't help feeling that fractions of a watch don't count unless you can show us the hacksaw in action...

*edit* Oh... I don't feel silly at all
