Been lurking and reading up here for a while. Figured I might as well try to contribute some.

Sweet! This is like casually joining a party and saying 'Oh, here's a picture of my Ferrari.'

Great watch. Do you get comments from strangers?

Oh no! I hope I don't seem like that guy. He sounds like a complete tool. I'd be happy to show you pictures of my 93 chevy though.

I don't wear this watch, ever. It's only been out of the box a couple of times for pictures. Its cool as they come though. I usually wear my trusty ol' planet ocean.

Sorry, didn't mean it to sound like that, although I know you're messing with me. 😉 That A8 is out of the ordinary and one of the coolest Speedmasters. Shows you're willing to push the envelope.

Hmmm...

pepperjuice: "Howdy y'all" ... "figured"... "pardner" ...

Is there any Texan in your background somewhere? Just asking for a friend.

If you ever say "fixin' to" in a post we'll know for sure.

Welcome to you from Texas! Glad you joined! Pull up a chair and sit a spell!

Nice way to make an entrance mate.
Good to hear you don't wear it day to day, a single roughneck shift would probably destroy it.
Keep you bullet proof PO for real work.
Cheers from Oz.

Thanks pardner.

Thankfully I don't do the roughneck work anymore. I'll leave that to the young bucks with strong backs and something to prove. Mostly I just troubleshoot machines and tell folks how to get them back up to running. My PO is plenty fine for an everyday wear. I acquired the speedy mostly as an asset to trade for something special I've got my eye on a bit down the road.

I've lived, traveled and worked on five of the seven continents but yet to visit the land down undah. Met plenty of good folks from them parts though. It's definitely on my bucket list.
