What's the appeal of Rolex.. I'm not a watch person. I know absolutely nothing about them. But vintage intrigues me

[Chris]

G'day people.  Today we're going into the wild to see if we can spot a rare creature.  Now, he's a shy one, but if backed into a corner, he'll bare his teeth to scare away predators.  Here's his natural habitat…

Let's see if we can get a little closer and see if we can catch a glimpse…

OOOOOH!!  There he is!  Didja see him!?!

We'll need to be veeeery careful, now.  We don't want to frighten this beautiful fella…

AAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!! He's right on top of us!!!! RUN!!!!

NOOOO!!!!  Help!!!

it's jewelry, like any other high end watch

[zwer]

Yeah. I just like them, particularly the manual ones. Think the one I've just bought is from the year of my birth - I should be able to confirm when I have the serial number.

Chris are you a JRE podcast fan?

[Chris]

Not familiar with them.  Why do you ask?

[CLJ]

Its where I heard about the 'Primal Bells', just curious.

They oughta put red LEDs in the eye sockets that trigger off an accelerometer.  Kettlebell swings=glowing eyes of death

[Chris]

Ah, got it.  There was a link to the website for them posted over in the exercise thread.  Since the company is based in Austin, and my wife had to go there earlier this week, I asked her to pick one up for me.  Nothing more interesting than that.

next coming is a 2 pood gorilla

[Chris]

This one:

That's supposed to be followed by a 1.5 pood and a .5 pood, which sound a lot more useful to me.

[jacoavlu]

that'd be it, and I think they're doing a zombie

[FurattoHeddo]

@zwer:

Cdn$1500, shipped. Identical to the one I had stolen except mine was on a black leather Rolex band instead of brown.

Damn thieves. Sorry to hear you had one stolen. I had a '68 GMT Master stolen from my house. It was my grandfathers and still pisses me off when I think about it.
