Forum is Quiet Today: So Let's Play 20 Questions

This forum has been nice and active lately, but is quiet today, so let's have another game of "20 questions", as we did a few weeks ago.

The summary of the rules and procedures is as follows:

  • I announce that I have received a new watch..
  • Forum participants then ask a series of questions, one question at a time, trying to identify the watch.
  • If you can accurately identify the watch by asking 20 or fewer questions, then you win; if you ask the 20 questions, but still have not identified the watch, then I win.
  • The questions must be "yes" or "no" questions.

Remember:The best strategy is for the early questions to be very general, then you try to get more specific with the questions, after you have narrowed down the range of choices. For example, if the first three questions have told you that it is a (1) mechanical (2) chronograph with a (3) black dial, it is probably too early in the process to ask the question, "Is it a two-button Flieger?". A better 4th question might be "Is it manual-wind or automatic?".

Another Reminder: It will work out best if you write your questions, one at a time, in the "Subject" line of the Message that you are posting.

OK, let's start the questions!!
