When being stuck in "traffic" is ok

Boat traffic with a GMT on in our new car!

Bonus points if you can name the location.

Did you get stuck in traffic on purpose so you can stare at your wrist safely?

No sir - I'm surprised at all the misses here - it's a pretty important bridge, I would think!

Nice watch - Nice ride!

C8's are almost as crazy as Rolex's (complete with flippers, $30K markups, year+ wait times, bizarre allocation processes at dealers, high demand, etc..)!

Yeah - the difference is you can actually wait on these and pay MSRP within a year. Got mine in 6 months.

Plus, supply is catching up to demand in my opinion. Who knows when that will happen with Rolex.

In a car like that the only location that matters is the gear box. Geography is irrelevant.
