As Stormy Glenn said, Old enough to know better and young enough to want to do it anyway.

My sweetheart has two nicknames for me ~ Mr. Big Nose & Old Man
They both ring true.

It's weird being the same age as old people.

Old enough to be annoyed with current slang, not staying up past 10pm & treasuring peace & quiet. Young enough not to be deterred by an aging body after many years crouched in the back of helicopters.

Sigh... 36 soon...

It’s sort of a running joke with my friends. One of them saw this and bought it for me … knowing there’s a bit of truth in every joke

Everyone wants to get old.

But no one wants to be old.

Not at all

I met Mr Dufour at age 22, trying to get into the Rolex family at a young age joined this place at 18.

It's good seeing fellow young people enjoying these watches, let's let mechanical watches live on for the next generations
