Independents: RS SERIES 2 CLUB

Jay, once we all get our watches, we should meet for sure. You chose will look the business, I chose the red on red because I have a soft spot for that old english style of pocketwatch. I travel to NY twice a year so it would indeed be possible to meet up. Christakis
