**Incoming / But a Very Special Outgoing**
I just received this excellent condition SS Submariner in the mail this afternoon.
I purchased the watch as a wedding gift for one of my nephews who also love watches. So that's why the title reads Incoming/Outgoing.
I am a firm believer that we don't have to wait until we or someone dies to express and show them how much we love them. I purchased it off of a member that took great care of it and kept it in the safe for quite some time after he had it serviced.

I would just like to thank all of you guys for your kind words. I have a very special relationship with most of my immediate family. It was tragedy that made us closer and it also made me realize that I'm the most happiest when my family is happy and doing well. I have been very blessed, so when a family has a need or has accomplished something special, I help out were I can. My nephew is one of 3 family members that graduated from college this year, but he served 6 years in the Army first.

what a coincidence... i went to dave and buster's for happy hour/dinner tonight, there was a guy (a little older than me) playing galaga with the same watch. he was pretty good, made it to level 26. started shooting the breeze after he finished, turns out he's a cpa. wonder if he's here lol
