    Should've been more specific, four of us rented one of the garages.

    Mine is the blue Z06.

    Then there will be my buddies and their red Frankenstein C6 vette, silver 996 turbo, and white E92 M3

    Absolutely lovely!

    I looked at a Yamaha a few years ago...... damn paint look to be a metre deep..... grand pianos are absolutely beautiful things.....

    its a good thing you can't get ten in a box on the dresser or I'd have 'em!

    Yamaha has great grand pianos, they just had features we didn't want (player piano, silent player, etc). Cool features, just not worth the premium to us.

    And I bet you will still have room for quite a few watches....maybe each one of you can buy one with dials to match your rides (which are bloody lovely!!!)

    Well, after not buying a single watch last year (won one in a contest though, woo!), I have now bought four this week ::facepalm2::

    My first Longines - and another entry in my gold plated cabinet of wannabees :p

    Longines.JPG
    It's actually a complete set, comes with papers, box even the original strap and buckle! The listing said it was rose gold, but I'm not holding my breath, not with pictures of that quality...

    Another entry, also from a poorly photographed sales advert:

    Sea600.JPG

    The Seamaster 600 has just been serviced (well, the seller says so...) and the Longines is delivered straight to Watchguy.co.uk for it's first service ever. Can't wait to see them in person!!

    Sometimes the last day of the estate sales are the best.

    Couldn't resist the post-apocalyptic patina/damage! And I'll never be able to afford a Rolex GMT with a pepsi bezel anyway :D

    I have been pining for a vintage GMT for so long that I fear I may have missed the window of "affordable", $4-7k. Any that catch my eye now seem to be $9k+ :(

    Our "Listening" room is a bit small for the Venere 2.5's...the Venere 2.0 fits perfectly, a quality product for sure.
