Embarrassing Moment in Staff Meeting Today
So I've got the white Milgauss on and have been loving to wear it as its a unique piece. Problem was in my staff meeting today Da Boss caught me staring at it and asked if he was boring since his wife says so on a regular basis. No it was just me feeding my ego
 Anyone have semi ackward moments like this? I thank god he has a good sense of humor

It's worse when you're the boss and they catch you staring at your watch.

It's certainly happened, tho I can't remember specifics.
That said. I f($&;n love the white milgaus and think it will someday be in my line up. Congrats on an awesome watch. I would have been staring too.

Yeah ive adjusted the glidelock in meetings before and been called out by my boss ( whats the matter - Rolex not comfy??") as he hates the fact that my watch is nicer than his. Its embarrasing but I like having a paycheck.

The boss sounds like an arsehole. I stare at my GMT constantly and still don't know the time...

About a couple years ago, I was in class, I wasn't really paying attention, so I was playing around with my bezel. The professor asked me if I was bored, and what kind of watch I had on. I told him it was a Fossil. He came up to me and look down. He just rolled his eyes and went back to lecturing.

Just 1 pic is okay, not manyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy as I have  Everyday I take a new Pic, and when I deleted the pictures in my cellphone gallery, I deleted almost 300 pictures just of the watches(Omega, Longines, Tag Heuer) Well always itīs embarassing but what can i do if I want to took always a new pictures of my Baby??    like this when my wife see i took a picture again she told me I'm Crazy.

I kept getting the "Look" from my wife when I took pictures of the GV in front of the sights at Yosemite National Park last year.
