For the record - I do not want to see your organ.

This is the timekeeping device I find most useful at work. I even signed it because that somehow seems necessary in this thread.

This seems like a great clock for people who tend to go on benders.

FWIW a "WIS" (Watch Idiot Savant) isn't necessarily a collector - most have only 2 or 3 mechanicals.

Did it work? Can't tell from my phone.

I actually got a bottom of the line Rolex for my 16th birthday. It was very surreal. We weren't rich by American standards and I was really hoping for a car. Traded it for a Tag and some boot when I got to college. It bought a lot of beer and I still had a nice piece.

Yes. Lol, old trading term. "Getting the other person to kick in some boot on the deal."
