Well, graduation day is here for my grandson in Colorado and he's off to college in Boulder. hand6.gif I pondered on what to get him and, finally, came up with the idea of a watch (go figure)....so, I decided to dip into my own collection and send something special...so I sent my Hamilton Khaki Aviation Chronograph on the thick pigskin aftermarket strap and butterfly deployant...also sent the OEM Khaki/NATO strap and a black leather riveted Pilot's Strap with Butterfly....Forgot to mention, he loves watches but his collection is limited to a Timex and a Fossil.
