Roger Federer - Wimbledon 2009 winner and his Rolex
(still not sure was Roddick was wearing.....Originally I thought 'some Rolex on Oyster' but the color of the dial and thechrono buttons were confusing me) - For sure - NOT a Daytona...split center links ?? Naaah...must have been a reflection...Wimbledon Finals: Roger Federer def. Andy RoddickRoger Federer 5 7 7 3 16 Andy Roddick 7 6 6 6 14 At first I was confused and the 'split' center link was throwing me off,(I guess it was only a reflection of some sorts)but toward the end it was obvious - DJ II on Oyster.

New NATO Color
Our beloved strap forum has been dead lately, so I wanted to share this new combination that really clicked with me.We just got in some new NATO colorations, and while being photographed, this combo really caught my eye. The red in the strap perfectly ties with the red seconds hand, and with the red, navy, and white dial, it combines for a nice "preppy" look.

Your Top 3 List!
While I know it would be difficult for many (as it sure is heck is for me) pick the top three watches you own and post pictures of them. When I state top three, I am not meaning price or value but the three you most like regardless of price. On the other hand, if it just happens to equate to price and value, that is fine also.For me, the first is easy. I always wanted a Rolex but would not foot the bill. My wife took care of that buy not being as stingy as I am and gave me this as a gift. The combination of being the Rolex I always wanted but would not buy and the gift from my loving wife, it is my solid number one!The second was much harder to choose. It being only a few weeks in the house may have influenced me some but I have wanted this watch since first seeing a picture of one almost a year ago. So coming in at number two is my latest EL.Now number three was the hardest decision for me to make. It got down to one from a group of Seiko and Citizen watches I own and this Seiko won
