What time do you wear?

I am well aware of that Mike, I never claimed they always have.

That's one of the reasons I bought my Zenith El Primero. The other is it is/was probably the most accurate Swiss Chronometer. The third is it looks very, very nice - understated and classic.

Enjoy,
Bob

Bob, Nice watch! Three great reasons to own it. Some day my ship will come in..........:-)

Dig my Omega Seamaster! Thank god I'm not on the watch merry-go-round.

If you've got the money, I've got the time?
Whatever.

Got over myself and bought a used Rolex GMT II.
The thing is the most bulletproof mechanical watch I have owned.

Which will be relevant when the EMP of a nuclear attack or comet strike renders anything with gallium in it useless.

Fortunately, pure tube equipment will be unaffected.
As long as you have a power source designed by Faraday.

Wonder why all the tubes come from Russia or China?
Or the mechanical watches from Switzerland?

Buy American.
Save the world.
