Read the article this morning on the Auction a few years back that sold off the Paul Newman Daytona for a whopping 17.8 million dollars. Who ever says SS isn’t worth more than gold? Hah just kidding. Anyway -

I’m trying to put my self in this man’s shoes. What exactly would you then do with the watch? I can’t imagine casually wearing the watch outdoors that I just plunked down 17.8 M for. Do I store it in a safe and leave it there? no, again.

What would you guys do
