I like the variety. I don't see a vintage gold watch (the Vario is cool, but it doesn't count.) You need something that you can wear to a wedding or a funeral.

It's been a few days. There was heartache. The underdog bronze watch did nothing wrong. The Cruncher wearing it did. Arbitrary rules are meant to trip...
I said that I would drop new rules on Friday and then dropped one on Thursday. Well, this is the Friday one. It is really just to add to the list of W...
Don't tell them. There is a secret rule change for this weekend (and every subsequent weekend until the end). The pictures didn't work. The fatigue ha...
It has been a week since the last power rankings and we are down to seven participants. There have been rules changes and watch fatigue. During this c...
Before we get to the rule change let's pour one out for @Davemcc who put up a good fight before the inevitable pull of his collection did him in. It w...
