Is it not considered tactless to dibs something that someone just barely got out of the box; or is it an indirect way of saying "job well done"?
I look at it as a high compliment. You are admiring someone's choice enough to want it.

You can ( people have ) call dibs before someone has even got the watch. ( on announcement of getting said watch )

Before this had gone for putting right, @Garv had dibbesed it... After it came back, he reminded me that he'd dibbesed it... When I started selling off pieces to find other stuff, he checked in with me to make sure I hadn't forgotten that he'd dibbesed it.

Before:



After:



Dibbesed is a blood oath. 😉

And like a lot of others here I'd imagine, I have a spreadsheet. 😁
Whew! I'm on the spreadsheet. It must be an official dibs!

I'll leave it to you in my will. That should be the next time it becomes available. 😉😜

Bill, seeing your Ultima on the full bracelet on Purists is what made it a must have for me, but @ulackfocus I'm not sure I was the recipient of any parts out of your donor watch, unless something went into the 2757 off it?

The short hands. 😉 This was before the "Hoi was wrong, the hands are long" episode. Whatever happened to that t-shirt?
