I’ve lived too long anyway

In my continuing (and pointless) obsession with mech watches, I’ve been looking for an analog with GMT.

Cheap chinese gmt

Purty, eh?

Looks like a Chinese copy of a Rolex, Miyota movement. Ebay, $25 plus $20 S&H from Asia. Cheap, in the mail, and am I looking forward to it.

Clearly, this whole watch thing has gotten a bit out of hand.

    A bit?

    I can picture the next time you have to fly…

    TSA: “Sir, please put all metal into the tray.”
    Paul: “This may take some time…”
    (sounds of groans and a hail of thrown boarding passes from the line following as Paul…
    …takes off his jacket.
    …then a watch
    …then a watch from the other arm
    …then a watch from his picket
    …then a second watch from his right arm
    …then a third from his left arm
    …then another from a different pocket.

    TSA: “Sir, we will have to detain you. Only terrorists have that many watches. How many bombs are you planning to detonate with them?”
    Paul: “But really, I’m not a terrorist! I just have a fetish. It isn’t even X rated. Really!”
