    I wore my Sherpa Graph this morning at the gun range until a buddy of mine called saying he wanted me to look at a Rolex GMT he bought at an estate sale.

    It's not mine yet but this is what happens when you mix Pepsi and chocolate together..

    Thanks, Cristos. The watch dates to the early '40s, but the bracelet is from 1949 (the earlier rivet bracelets were untapered, and did not have the Rolex crown on the clasp); it was added to it by the previous owner since they match so well (apparently the original owner of the bracelet had bought it for a yellow gold Omega (!), according to his son). The size is a standard bubbleback size, 32mm wihout crown. Yes, too bad about the radium burn, which fortunately is less noticeable to the naked eye. The lume is still pretty effective in the dead of night.

    Well it looks fantastic and the burn only enhances the character IMHO. :)

    4 hours at work, and 4 hours at home washing 4 of the bikes, wash and HP tune on the F250 and a start on the third timing belt change on a 259,000 mile camry. POS, but I love that car!
    Time to relax with an 18yr single malt and a Padron smoke with my Crisp new watch from my new friend in Brazil.
