God doesn't need to know what time it is.

@crustycoot: Actually, the guitar Ry uses primarily for his slide playing is a heavily-mofified Strat, not Tele. He refers to it as the Coodercaster ;-) . At the suggestion of David Lindley he replaced one of the stock pickups with a pickup out of an old pedal steel guitar. Awesome tone, but of course it always comes back to the player, his touch, and his musical sensibilities and taste.

i think that you are not an idiot and must know that everybody interested in watch mechanism and not only in Rolex brand name know that the first complex "watch" or mechanical computer was very ancient and unsurpassed before millenia pass over it ?

And astronomy/astrology of the greek is nothing save " sky fairy"...

You know that before Newton Archimedes genius anticipate calculus and theoretical physic?

Go back silent or post something which will be interesting TO ALL instead of trolling me...

When i answered your posts i gave ARGUMENTS...

Where does the imaginary sky fairy enter the story of watches?

Here is a Swiss watch maker thinking otherwise than your limited onlooker blind habit about greek "sky fairy":

asctim, before cell phones and further a Man's watch was an important tool and some felt an extension. Many Men owned only one and it was cherished. Your Dad's watch has a story for you. Keep it at least. Down the road service it and enjoy it reminding you of your Father.

@secretguy:  You and I agree on many things but sadly you are way off on Clapton.  Most of the great respected guitarists of all time (Albert Lee, Yngwee Malmsteen, Joe Bonamassa etc) all say Clapton is a fabulous improvisational talent and blues player--Yngwe saying Clapton's guitar on John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers album defines blues playing.  Is he the best of all time--no---is he a great guitar player--yes.  Would love to know what successful trained musician  thinks he's a "hack" ?  Oh and don't mention Ritchie Blackmore--his jealousy of Clapton is well known.  For the record Clapton thinks Albert Lee is the best.

The problem with EC's playing from my perspective is I always seem to know which note comes next which for me makes him boring. As for his watch, who the F cares. We are sitting on the brink of a nuclear war, getting as close as the Cuban missile crisis and this is what we have to talk about, a silly watch that people wear only to prove they are rich. I bet Putin has one.
