    Like the looks of the VL, quite a bit actually.

    Just curious, what kind of movement does it have? (it's another philie, do have a couple timekeepers with COSC certificates, Geneva seals, silver guillochés, chamfered movement parts, côtes de Généves, swan neck springs and more rubies than normal people have fingers and tootsies).

    I am afraid my audio setup is at a stage soon, where I have to resort back to collecting watches again (and now also vinyls).

    Yeah I'm into this brand, mainly for the leather. Good quality, last for ages. Mostly buy the hand accessories for The Lady.

    I like my monogrammed wallet.

    Better value than Hermes. Both these guys get all our crocodile skins and when we buy it back as a bag, its at 10,000% plus tax.

    When I think about that combined with our domestic politics, it makes me angry how Australia let such vertical innovation opportunities slip through its fingers.

    Now David, not sure whether you are still in the dating game, just remember the 3 'C's. If they are hanging around just to be dressed by your taste, then drop the baggage!

    Steve, LV lists me now as their VIC because I consistently drop 100k+ annually. They did a photo shoot of me in the store where my primary shopping rep is located then featured along with other of their VIC guests. It was kewl. They send me custom gifts you can't buy retail, of course on eBay you can. They also send me special invites like to their LV Cup gig. More gifts and swag plus all transport and lodging paid for. I am completely addicted to treatment.

    When I return home I will pop-off some shots of my hard sided luggage.

    Dating game? Hook ups only, not gonna share my income - hell no! Pre-Nup is an absolute.

    Mark, is that the before and after?

    If he has the same weekend in Vegas as I did he'll have to pawn off the LV watch and buy one like yours

    That would be the "after." I lived in Vegas for around 3 years and people who lost everything while they were there were given bus tickets home.

    When I go to vegas in a couple of weeks I'll have to post the watches I usually buy for my wife. She is the collector NOT me. I hate watches. I do appreciate the amazing workmanship of fine watches. She likes the practicality.

    I love audio - thats where most of my money goes. Second is cars.

    And as we know, the worst thing is you actually never own a Patek, you merely hold on to it for one generation .
