I first want to thank all of you who helped me with your replies when I first posted my "Complaint" remarks. It was because of you that my 3 beauties were ordered, and I am delighted with them! :D Their service was excellent, and I even was able to use one of Marc's coupons to help it along. They fit me perfectly! Am switching out to Croc straps with deployants for the Explorer and SJ from Ron at IW. Your wives/signif.others should take a look and weep. :D I am one, happy camper......THANK YOU, gentlemen! From Chris Hooper came this Zeno Explorer--  From Mark at IW, these 2 beauties-- First, this Stovard Jurgenson hand wound mechanical ETA 2660. The dial's a beauty tho it doesn't show well here......take a look in the WATCHES post over at Tny's Corner  Then, this lovely automatic--  Last edited on Wed Jul 5th, 2006 01:17 pm by tny795 |

Soooooooo you finally showed the Big 3 huh Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm................................... NIce From what I recall of you at your beginning thread you stated that you didnt want any BLING BLING and that elysee have a lil bling............. go figure now ( I could state the obvious but I guess it's a womens perrogative to change her mind) |

They all look like great choices. If we're not buying watches for ourselves, the next best thing is making recommendtions on what others should buy. Now that you got the "bug", you'll have to keep buying new ones to satisfy the watch "jones".:) Enjoy and wear them in good health. |

Hmmmmmpft! I could take umbrage with your words, but I prefer the high ground. I did not change my mind at all, sir. I have never used the word "bling" in my entire life.......egads, man! Now, a woman is not allowed one dress watch? :shock: Must every timepiece I purchase be militaristic in appearance? hmmmm? :? Wait until you see the other 2 on their way.:D jakisbck wrote: Soooooooo you finally showed the Big 3 huh Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm...................................

I believe you said you "dint want no stinkin' hearts" 3) The "blingy" does have a certain amount of class. 4) The Stovard is very classic. 5) The ZENO......... HEY..........I HAVE THAT ONE! |

Sis Ty my bad you didnt say Bling Bling those were my words to describe what you meant anyway your words were Hearts & Jewels now, if that elysee dont look like jewels are in it then I dont know what do. LOL (only picking now) Another thing as far as calling me sir well, im not that old enough to be call sir in my book Greg will do just fine (although you didnt know what my name was) I thought I would put it out there to you also, please to me you my fair lady. "smile" Btw those are some really nice looking watches that you have there now that the Big 3 1/2 have gone up to 5 will it move any further than that or will you pull something else out from under that blouse............................... "smile" (for the life of me still trying to figure out what that half is) because you have already shown 3 but not the half will we get the chance to see the half or is that just a clincher to keep us guessing.:cool: |

Dear Sir KenC: 1. However I choose to spell "hmmmmmpft" is correct until it can be proven to be incorrect..........end of topic! 2. Dint want no butterflies, neither. Not sure I employed the use of the word "dint", however.....not my style. ;) Geez, man, you've misspelled. :shock: it's din't!!!! 3. Thank you for complimenting my good taste. 4. Ditto #3 and yes, it sure is. :cool: 5. NO KIDDING!?!?! HOLY COW! HOLY MOSES! That's great, sir. :D have enjoyed speaking with you. KenC wrote: tny795 wrote:Hmmmmmpft!

Thanks for the kind words Badgerred. If you ever read the "I Have a Complaint" post I put up a couple of weeks back, the problem for me was not finding the size and style that I wanted............very long story. Anyhow, the good guys here at the TripleTee helped me out. :D Oh, don't know about that "keep buying new ones". Have shot my wad for awhile. Badgerred wrote: They all look like great choices.

Mr. Greg, sir: All that seemed to be offered were hearts, butterflies, and diamonds. Couldn't find anything else, and a woman does like choices; don't want those bloody things forced down my throat (put on my wrist) because it was all that was available. :X Now, I have ONE and one it shall remain. Five's it for awhile, I think. Not my style to go running off in all directions buying like a crazed person. Plus, I'm thrifty with my $. :) jakisbck wrote: Sis Ty my bad you didnt say Bling Bling those were my words to describe what you meant anyway your words were Hearts & Jewels now, if that elysee dont look like jewels are in it then I dont know what do.

So, it's a hmmmmmpft! to you, as well, Mr mcwright! Am I supposed to provide all-angle shots, too? Where's the Sticky that has that rule, huh? :? gee whilakers (sp.?) :( (can't believe he's just showing off; naw, wouldn't do that!) I do believe we share the same Stovard Jurgenson--just different straps. The dial's so neat/classy. :) mcwright wrote: A couple of pics from a German dealer. |

And, the SJ dial. BTW, this watch will take a 22mm strap if you choose to do so. That is what I have on it now. I have tried several 22mm and they all fit. It comes with a 20mm, but I think the acutal size is more like a 21mm. Attachment: sj5.jpg (Downloaded 52 times) Last edited on Wed Jul 5th, 2006 09:29 pm by mcwright |

Here is a nice women's automatic watch that we missed. It comes in two other colors. Retail is about $240. Graf Zepplin is the brand. Attachment: 7453-2.jpg (Downloaded 45 times) Last edited on Thu Jul 6th, 2006 03:34 am by mcwright |

If I recall correctly, one of the reasons for the watch was to impress the partners and clients. Pulling out a nice fountain pen can be a very good way to show your seriousness and sophistication when you are asking someone to sign on the dotted line. It can also give you a nice feeling knowing you have one in your pocket or purse. Last edited on Thu Jul 6th, 2006 03:32 pm by Badgerred |

I think someone on wus actually makes the housing for some of those great looking pens. I cant get a good looking pen because it would be lost the first day I had it. |
