Re: Spontaneous Scan Day Request -- Favorite Watch

: Jeff

I had a similar converstaion with one of my collegues recently......and i'd love to join in but........would someone please either offer to post my pictures or tell me how to do it?........i really have been trying and asked several times for help......people have promised to help,but unless i have missed something i haven't yet had any direction on this matter. And i get nervous about asking again as i feel i got my fingers stamped on last time i moaned/mentioned that no one was helping !. Whilst i realise that everyone is busy and leads a life outside this forum, i love this place but find myself somewhat restricted as i feel i can't properly join in.
Respectfully your Bryan{ wincing at the thought of get told off again by chuck !}

: Someone in my office learned of this Heuer
: affliction, and asked me a simple question
: about my collection: "Which is your
: FAVORITE ?"

: OK, that seemed like a simple enough question,
: and I responded with a description of SOME
: of my favorites. Or maybe I said that if I
: was keeping only one, to wear every day, it
: would be this one. and if I were keeping one
: that was very valuable, then it would be
: this one. or one that was very rare, then it
: might be this one. you get the idea.

: Being the articulate and precise young lawyer
: that she is, she responded: "No, not a
: list of your favorites, but which is your
: ONE favorite." So I gave her the
: answer (which I will not yet present here).

: which brings me back to the subject of this
: spontaneous Scan Day Request. I realized
: that we have done "Favorite
: Arrivals" of 2004, and "Favorite
: Movements", but if we have ever done
: plain old "Favorite Watch", it
: must have been a long time ago.

: So not necessarily for this Monday, but
: sometime soon, how's about some of us post
: photographs of our ONE favorite watch.

: and if that is too difficult / painful, maybe
: post two or three, or four or five, but in
: any case, start at the "top", with
: your VERY FAVORITE , and we'll see where it
: ends up.

: Let's see what we all come up with!! As usual,
: we will expect (and even encourage) some
: variations on the theme . . . so if you
: don't have a favorite watch, show us your
: favorite child, or your favorite car, or
: your favorite fast food, or your favorite
: SOMETHING .
