    Thanks. I thought they didn't make them anymore. Breitling has ONE, and only one, approved horological oufit for vintage watches in North America. He's in Pennsylvania. The original overhaul service that my folks did for me cost $800. I was wearing it daily and whacked it on a stanchion at work which jarred the bezel loose :eek1 . I sent it back to get fixed. Here's where it gets interesting (or scary)... they had my name and address on file in California. However, I had since moved to Washington. They never called me for address verification and sent it to my old house in California. Since service takes anywhere from 2-6 months the watch doesn't exactly stay in the forefront of my thoughts while its gone. One day I thought "I haven't seen my watch yet." I called the place and they told me they had shipped it 2 months earlier. :dog :kboom :puke1 :cry I was sure that watch was long gone. I had sold my house to a family of 15 Mexicans, give or take 5, and I figured it was history. UPS got on it and, after some questioning, the box was produced UNOPENED. Someone had thrown it in a closet I guess. Anyway, the watch is now back home and comes out every so often (weddings, funerals, :evil ).

    as many of you know by now im independently wealthy and will only even entertain the thought of a watch if it is so superb when women see it they immediately orgasm, and men see it their heads litterally explode.

    so what does charlie wear on his wrist?

    ill show you, but you must be careful for you might not be able to handle it.

    If you spent 1/2 as much time looking for a real fucking job as you do on here bitching about how poor you are, you might have gotten into something lucrative by now. Either get off your ass and do something about your financial state, or stfu about it already. You've had a fucking motorcycle for about 5 minutes over the years you've been on here complaining about how fucking poor you are. Go deliver pizzas or newspapers instead of riding around here in your fucking Wambulance. Jeebus you're a tiring one note cunt.

    It wasn't Liberace's. It was P-Diddy's.

    And no, he don't want it back. He bought another one with more "ice."

    All these time pieces are just fantastic... I started some research on a few of them and I gotta say I just can't believe how much money they are.... 3k, 4k.... I even saw one for 17k!

    I just don't know anyone who wears a seventeen thousand dollar watch. :eek1


    But they are so beautiful - makes me wish I had a thick wrist just to wear them......
