Greetings from Philadelphia, PA! After 32 hours, I'm in Reading, PA. Will try to visit the Hamilton watch factory tomorrow. The Master is behaving impeccably.

So, I'm back after a 3 week globetrot. So much to catch up on at work, home and play! I really had a great time - first in PA, and then in Germany, Holland and Belgium. Of course I saw a lot of nice watches! Unfortunately my trip coincided with the worldwide slump in the economy, which resulted in our currency weakening drastically against the major currencies. My trip was 25% dearer as a result........ Well, I did pick up a few pieces to bring back. I will report on them one by one later on. The GMT Master II performed superbly. I have never worn this watch for 3 weeks solid before, so I can safely say it was a dream. It is so user friendly when adjusting times across the zones - especially the feature allowing you to adjust backwards too - with the date reversing if necessary. Only two complaints (make that 3...) - lume is VERY poor at night (I wore it 24/24) -gaining about 35 sec /day, so I will have to have it regulated. - Most people doubt the originality of a Rolex nowadays, due to the number of fakes about... I took some "in situ" pics of the piece on the trip. The "Pepsi" watch photographed during the Hershey Fall Meet of Antique automobiles; Pictured during the cross Atlantic flight from London to Philly; Pictured at Terminal 1 at Heathrow.
