Being that as it may however, the economy dictates I wear a Swatch chronograph from my duty free shopping in Maui.
lol- you have goooood taste! i bought one for myself for my 30th birthday (now 7 years ago - and i still smile every time i put it on). the only watch certified for flight by NASA - the only watch worn on the moon.

i did a shoot once with Gene Cernan - last man on the moon. he kindly signed my omega leather presentation box. one of my favorite things.....there are few things that feel as good as an automatic on your wrist. (ok...maybe an automatic in your hands.....)

I'd hump that midget for your '88 Turbo! Who the hell cares what kind of watch I'm wearing if I'm driving that!

You wouldnt want to hump it after tonight. A tire pole with two Fuchs hanging above the car fell down ON the car. Hows this for proof:









The bad: Might cost $2000 if I need a new tail. Emailed the claim to the agent tonight. And I got SIX other tires hanging on tire poles. Im seroiusly thinking of selling my Fuchs now.

The good: As far as I can tell, there isnt a SCRATCH on the car. Unreal. Miracle. No idea how it happened. The tire pole weighs like 8lb and it solid steel. Had it fallen on the car it would have ruined the whole rear end. I think the tires hit the rubber lip only and bounced right off. Nothing even caromed into the car. Im going to have to go over it with a fine toothed comb tomorrow but as of now I cant see a scratch. I mean it boggles the mind. The tire pole looked like it had been eaten by a pack of wolves.

I want to cry.
