Makes me happy I played a role in your collecting scheme, Bill ;-)

I don't actually tend to purchase watches based on milestones in life. I collect because I really enjoy it. But you are right on about enjoying the community of collectors. Please let me know when you are back in Beantown! :-) Bill

It has been a great design for two generations, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves in the future. Each model I have owned has been distinct for one reason or the other, so I don't consider myself to have revisited them. I liked the exact ove...
