I would have had time to go golfing… but I don’t golf.

So I had coffee, read my book and visited our local vintage watch store. The place is like a museum, and most of his cool displays are more collection than stock for sale.

I still managed to buy a nice leather lined canvass pouch for my Sky-Rocket.

And when I got back to the car, she was still not done!

"But honey, if you were only at the watch store, why did you have to take a shower afterwards?"

You’ll need to come visit me in London. The real London, Canada. We can go find out together.

He had this that had just arrived. He was sending it to Toronto to have it serviced by Omega (not sure what that means…) I think that is the 57 Replica from the 90s, but I am not an expert.

Nobody told the poor guy that vintage watch collecting is dead. 😗

I wonder how my wife would feel about getting her hair done in Canada?

Those are some great display pieces. I assume this is Derek Dier's store.

Spiffy bookshelf speakers (I assume there’s a right-hand one too).

What a wonderful tableau, and very tastefully displayed within a great piece of modular modernist design by Poul Cadovius (I believe) 👍

She called in sick - she works at the strip club - to have her hair done. I did not want to rat her out.
