"BLACKJACK'S" First European Vacation
Hey guys ! ! !As you all probably know by now me and Tiffany were going to visit with Adam in Spain for the past six days. Well, our travel plans had to be changed. Tiffany works for United Airlines so we get free airfair anywhere in the world we want to go. BUT, we are always at the mercy of available seating on the planes. There were 16 seats still available for the flight to Barcelona when we flew from Chicago to New York but when we got to New York all of the sudden the Barcelona flight was oversold by 17 seats!!! We then tried to jump on the flight to Madrid but that was oversold as well! After that we just ran (literally) from gate to gate trying for Paris, Lisbon and Frankfort but all of these did not have any available seats too. There was only one more flight going to Europe that night, a plane to Amsterdam in the Netherlands and it still had five seats available! So, we jumped on that one. We just wanted to get to Europe so we could jump on another flight that was going to Sp

The postman is my bestest buddy some days.
Today's special: one Watchadoo bracelet, fresh from down under!I would not normally edit out my address, but with events of the last few days I don't need an INFILTRATOR getting it.This really make the watch look way more expensive than it is, nearly on par with a Doxa (okay, maybe not that expensive).It's already passed 2 vital tests: The "driving around Center City" test which requires violent & frequent hand gestures.The "wolfing down a burger" test which forces my wrist into a position that can make the crown dig into the back of my hand.The "fishing goo + salt water" test comes next Wednesday, and the "scrape your arms in the sand" test comes a few weeks later when I take my first swim down the shore. So far it feels much more comfortable, but you still know it's a big watch (42 mm is big for me - no Oompa Loompa jokes!) I went big on the photos so you could get a good look at it.Thanks,Dennis

White Side
I very much want to defend Omega. I LOVE the two that I've got. But I just can't understand the thought process behind this watch. I just can't imagine it's going to have a large appeal. And this is going to be a watch that is produced in large numbers. Too big for a lady, and I can't imagine many dudes wearing an all white ceramic watch. To be honest, I kind of like the 4 new DSOTM black watches. I can see how they will sell. I can't see the white one having much appeal.

Let¡¯s see your engraved case backs...
My wife got me a new (my first from an AD) Sub C date for my birthday back once Nov. I have been trying to come up with something to put on the back and I¡¯m not coming up with anything. You guys have any suggestions? The last one she had the idea to put ¡°Not for Sale¡± which I still traded and she¡¯s still laughs about haha see belowI thought of using 143 or 1-4-3 since it¡¯s our number (google 1-4-3 lighthouse if you¡¯re curious) Or since it¡¯s a heirloom and I¡¯m a captain I thought of ¡°Capt. And my name¡±Or something like Happy Birthday from my wife and daughters name? Total loss, I¡¯m sure some of you creative minds can do better!! Ideas ???

Prices Daytona gray market
Gray dealers are selling the Daytona 116520 unworn series V (2009) and G (2010) At the same price I saw an 116500 of July 2006. They are all 50% above the official price. But I thought that the new ceracrom model should be quoted more.Can the previous one have a higher quote? Apart the V and G are outside the official warranty.
