Re: The answer
In Response To: Re: The answer ()

I'm not a cab driver nor do I know any but it's not wise to assume someone is well-to-do (or otherwise) based on their profession. Too often people, particularly in service-type jobs, are simply assumed to be poor know-nothings. The truth is, maybe this cabbie saved up and bought himself a real Submariner because he appreciates what it is and decided to spend his money on that instead of drinking every weekend or whatever. Hell, a chain smoker could collect Faberge eggs with the money he'd save if he quit, regardless of his profession. One of the things I appreciate most about the Omega WIS community is that Omega owners tend not to be snobby. I hope this is true!
