(International Watch Company, Switz.) It's modestly priced at 2.3 and the size has been increased in this new model to 38mm from 34mm which is too small. I apologize in advance if anyone is offended by the photos. I didn't design it, I just bought it.

Why would someone be offended RM?

That is a beautiful watch you have there but I thought you were finished buying for a while.

I showed mr ladyluck some of your watch collection as he is in the market for a new watch. We are just trying to get ideas of what he might like. Anyway, he says "Wow!!! That rodent guy has more watches than you have shoes I bet." He may very well be correct

Rodentman, someone was saying you were gone earlier today. I figured you were just hiding behind a pile of nuts or watches. Glad you're still here. Love the watch!!!! Very elegant!

After not hearing from RM for a while, I had feared the worst. Thank goodness it wasn't him! Glad to see you are still alive RM!

There are still some issues... The watch is really quite special. It's a simple dress watch, but the lug shape and angle give it a eunuch look. Can I say eunuch? I just did. The price is quite reasonable for an IWC, and it is very accurate, about a half a second off in 4 days. I am anxious to wear it to woik tomorrow.

They're still after me, but they just nicked my tail a bit. I'm very quick. Like a yipmunk. You don't see them dead in the road. Someday they'll see that more people want me alive than dead.

As well as the fact my meager watch collection can't hold a candle to yours. But whose collection can? Thank you for sharing with us.
