Have a good trip. Be sure to leave your unmatched collection out in plain view with the door unlocked and the alarm off.

PS - could you do me a solid and PM me your address?

PSS - be sure your insurance is current!

First many many congrats to your daughter to be in a such prestigious university
I dream my daughter and son will be able to integrate this level of university
And congrats to the parents

After that, congrats for that amazing watch
I am waiting to the pics to compare your dial and mine because you will notice some differences concerning the city names between the oldest versions and the newest
With this one, you definitely have the best collection I ever seen
