Thanks again, @Swaye, for pointing me in the direction of the Oris Aquis. I really like it.

I'm pour and don't get paid Orkin wages. Had to settle for an Omega. Woe is me.

Thats a bitchin classic Omega. Love it! I wish Rolex would do a blue bezel black dial Sub!YellowSnow said:I'm pour and don't get paid Orkin wages. Had to settle for an Omega. Woe is me.

Also, nice mousepad.

Bad lighting. It's a navy blue dial. Always have to show off the mouse pad for the culture.Swaye said:

I dont get watches. That is lots o money that can be spent on guns, hunting gear and truck upgrades. Not to mention booze drugs and ass.

I think every man needs to have a decent time piece. Doesn't have to cost and arm and a leg. Apple watches are lame.Ice_Holmvik said:I dont get watches. That is lots o money that can be spent on guns, hunting gear and truck upgrades. Not to mention booze drugs and ass.
But I hear you on the cost involved. I'd love to have one of @Swaye 's Submariners or GMT some day and its in the 5- 10 year life plan. But I've got stereo upgrades to make that are way higher on the list of priorities.
@swaye has both and we all suck- i.e., kick ass gun collection and all the watches. I've been sexted the pics. -
This. Get the guns and hunting gear first, then the Jeep upgrades. After that do enough drugs to kill half this bored, then screw enough hookers to give the other half AIDS. Then all that is left is baller ass watches and cigars. Die happy.YellowSnow said:

My problem is it doesnt matter how many firearms, bows, hunting packs etc that I already have I want more. Looking at Skanda black Kryptec camo neoprene seat covers for my new truck right now. Only $325.00 for just the front seats. They are sic though.Swaye said:

Today I’m wearing my Zelos Hammerhead, bronze with blue dial. Not in Swaye’s league but...

Isn't there a blueberry sub or am I making this up? Thought I saw one on talking watches with the Korean guy from Lost.Swaye said:

Yeah, the legend of the Blueberry. Nobody knows for sure if they are real or not to my knowledge. If they were ever produced, it was in such low numbers and so long ago nobody remembers. And I think they were mostly GMTs, not Subs. Almost urban legend at this point among collectors. Which is all the more reason to actually make a nice fresh modern normal release of it. Everyone would go nuts.Doogles said:

@Doogles I did some hunting. Bob's watches is usually spot on with thsi type stuff so here you go:
Limited bezels for GMTs in the 1970 - not officially produced as a watch by Rolex, but rather some limited markets and as a "special" GMT. Incredibly rare. Probably more fakes than real ones. Awesome though. Rolex, please do a modern blueberry Sub Rolex. I couldn't give you my money fast enough - who am I kidding, the waiting list would be 8 years long.

Vintage Rolex I have really gotten into lately:
Kind of hard to find in good shape w/B&P. I might have to add this to my list. One of the best TT's Rolex ever made imo. And Clint Eastwoods preferred watch for 20+ years.

That was a great interview, thanks for posting.Doogles said:

Nice Logitech Keyboard and Wigwam mouse pad. Also freckles on the arm. Quite honestly, it looks identical to my set up except I don't have an awesome watch and my arm isn't 5 feet long. Being super slow strategy like myself, you're basically the giant version of me.YellowSnow said:I'm pour and don't get paid Orkin wages. Had to settle for an Omega. Woe is me.

FedEx delivery of above this morning. Been waiting a long time to find what I wanted. I like the 5 digit GMT better than the newer ones. Now I need a Pepsi insert to match my avatar. -
@spuden is my daddy apparently. Seriously. That’s my Dads watch which he’s had for thirty years. He bought it for $2500 and a late 80s Coke GMT sells for $8 to $10K now.spuden said:

Nice! I have been looking for the perfect 16710A myself! I even have an idea where you might have gotten that one because I was looking at it! Congrats bud! Great watch!spuden said:

I pulled down a couple of GMTs myself last week!

Lol. Nice oneupsmanship...Swaye raises by TWO GMTs! Very cool. I was stoked to finally pull the trigger. I’ve been watching for exactly what I wanted for over a year, and prices keep going up and up. Finally realized I just needed to buy it.Swaye said:

I got it from Takuya on TRF. Easy deal, but kind of scary to wire a significant amount of money on someone’s word. -
This was my one and only watch for the last 8 years. It’s been great, but the GMT is on a whole different level.

I’ve done business with Takuya for years. Good dude. And as we discussed in PMs that was the watch I was looking at. But the two I was getting was my limit! Super happy you got it. Killer watchspuden said:

Seriously nice watch, @spuden ... congrats!
While you fuckers flex with your GMT Masters (I'll get there some day), I want to share a couple of pictures of one of my Oris Divers that I sexted to Swaye yesterday. It didn't take long for the bronze to pitina on this thing and it's just fantastic.
I'm doing a Rolex flex of my own next month. Stay tuned. -

That bronze patina is fantastic! Really good looking watch -
Thanks, Spuden!
And it seems I don't know how to spell patina. FML
