Got my grail... xD

[bsodmike]

Hey all...

Earlier this year I picked up my very first AP,



Followed by a second,



I then strayed a bit and bought a third AP, a Royal Oak Offshore this time - the Diver,



I wasn't too keen on the ROO so I sold it and just last week picked up one of my 'grail' pieces...

Why that's so nice of you to set it for me...



Finally...! I'm wearing matching PP Calatrava cufflinks as well...





This rounds off the triumvirate quite nicely...



...and here's a review on YouTube explaining what all the fuss is about this rather complicated Patek 5146J.

Thanks!

... and to keep this 'related' my MBP just got a new friend



also picked up a WD My Book Studio II 6TB FW800 drive, am running it in RAID 1 3TB (mirrored). The Thunderbolt drive was tempting but it didn't have any RAID.

What's an AP ?

The poster appears to be an expensive watch fanatic, looking at his site.

I have a beautiful 10 year old Rotary watch that I received as a Christmas gift from my folks which keeps perfect time and I never leave home without.

It's the only one I'll ever need.

The last watch is £20k+ BTW.

You know you have too much money when you can spend £20K on a watch.

You know you have too much money when you can spend £20K on a watch.

They probably do hold their value though,especially if they are not common examples!

If you pass through the ME airports,they do sell some of them and they are very shiny!

[pctech2012]

True, maybe good as an investment.

20k is not too much to spend on your passion...

Aircraft are not cheap mistresses are they??

[pctech2012]

If you have it spare I suppose.
