Wow, should have gone first and bought it first...ouch! *NM*

: First of all, as the proud owner of the below pictured device, I
: now finally feel like part of the club.

: Now for the sad story. I went to an NAWCC (National Association of
: Watch and Clock Collectors) event on Friday. The event started
: with a parking lot swap meed at 7:00 am. I went down to the
: hotel lobby to get a cup of coffee at 6:30 and saw a young
: friend of mine walking out the door on his way to the swap meet.
: I yelled after him that I would see him at about 7:30 (late)
: because I had some emails to answer for work. When I finally got
: to the parking my young friend walked up and said, "you are
: a Heuer nut aren't you John?" "Look at what I just
: bought for $50.00." Well, to make a long story short....I
: am now the proud owner of this nice Super Autavia but I had to
: pay him a lot more than 50 bucks. The early bird truly does
: catch the worm.
