Thank you @Mr.Dee.Bater (the artist formerly known at hotwatchchick69 and omeganut) for organizing the charity auction and being a great sport about the new handle.

Looking forward to 365 days of lively debates as you are the master…orator and cunning linguist.

Just so everyone can get in on the in-joke... several other handles didn't make it past the, uh, "WatchCrunch algorithm" so "debater" it is!

That was a masterful play on words. I couldn't have done better myself. Maybe we should refer to you as Master from now on? Master Dee Bater does have a nice ring to it.

By the way, your SOTC is quite simply exquisite. I could see every piece of your collection in mine! Impeccable taste!

If you want a good laugh, check out the charity auction thread. I can't remember the last time I laughed so much at such clever double entendres!

I hate to criticize, but don’t you think you have a little too much variety in your collection? Several of those watches aren’t even GS.

Dude, in the same way that I'm a one-spouse kinda guy, I'm a one-watch-brand kinda guy too. I mean, I may covet other brands, but it just makes life so much easier to be bound "the one and only"!

The GS is strong in this little one.

No... you need to check out @ChronoGuy or @JaeBust!

Alas, Master is also abbreviated Mr. so yeah, go ahead and call him that🤣

Look but don’t taste

Taste but don’t touch

Touch but don’t tell

Yowza, the SOTC pic makes them all look so nude! 😊

Feels scandalous without a band of bracelet in sight. Wifey in Japan for a few weeks so I might debate on your pic a bit

Oh, and congrats and thanks to @SpecKTator for the winning bid! 👏

So you're committing to the one watch approach, I can respect that. Can't wait to see which watch you choose to wear exclusively for the rest of time.

I’m glad @SpecKTator saved you. After reading @Deeperblue at thescapementroom.com and seeing how skilled she is at testing one’s bravery, I had some concern on how this would play out. Cheers🍻

I had to stop bidding because I don't think any of my choices would have made it passed the censors 🫣

I'm 100% certain that not a single one of her picks would have been allowed. We tried changing the handle to a play on "clever language expert" = cunning lingui... But, the post didn't get published and was hidden! Ha!

It would have ended in tears 😂

I think my final choice would have been @biggus.dickus, and if that hadn't been allowed I would have declared it as a xenophobic slight on my countries heritage and demanded retribution.

A cunning linguist, huh? I see what you did there

I love double entendres. I try to make as many as possible when I can.

Love your endless positive vibe and altruism, brother. Looking forward to the next hangout when I’m back in SD. Alohas, B 🤙❤️

(the GS’ are all stunners🎯)

Definitely! Let me know when you're next in town!!!

Whew! Finally clicked in on your collection 😍 🙌 ️!Oddly, I don't see a SeaQ to balance out all that GS steel. Imagine the pic below is your fins you have neglected to wash the salt water off of. You wore your SeaQ on the Dive! The watch was rinsed and dried because who would post a wet dive watch on WC? Really it's a matter of what model (crown guard or no crown guards ) and color. Do you go blue, black, or green dial? 🤔

Awesome! My two choices!

So let's see. If you are buying TWO that calls for some kind ah' discount. Imagine THREE ! Maybe we can combine our buying power?
