Thanks, Peter. I have Polo shirts in a rainbow of colors. I rarely wear anything else.

But think of it this way: A man with 5 watches will be correct 5 times a day. Maybe even 10 if the watches don't have a date window.

Me too, Peter, I love polos and wear them 95% of the time. Now all you have to do is get the orange pumpkin into that collection and you will have a myriad of colours on your arm.

Hmmm....why this sudden loss of interest in watches, Peter?

BTW, the orange PO ain't too expensive. I got mine for an out-the-door price of under USD 2400. Good discounts are available on OMEGAs.

Good luck - JJ

It's one of those advanced courses you can take in grad school, Micah. The course was titled: How to read a watch with Hands! I believe it was a 2 credit course. I recall the final was a bitch.

Well, it's most of my Rolexes, anyway.

There's all sorts of other stuff. I wish I were an octopus.
