Country of origin fixation? Unconsious Product Racism?

There, I said the "R" word. Ran across this review for binocular, but it's that last sentence that caught my attention because I also read a response...

Self-Pleasuring Exhibitionists

That's what we are.  Best way to describe this pleasure we take from wearing watches.  No matter how expensive or not, it's for our own enjoyment.  Fo...

Sorry.  Pic caught my eyes.  I was thinking,  'really?! Those look like they can clean up quite well.'. Like this M. Treagor, 6/8, full-hollow, square point.

My old Lindburgh & Benson. About 5 complements. 1 was when I was just about to be put under to have a cracked tooth extracted.  The dental assistant hold up my hand to look at my watch and she said,  "Nice watch!" Right before I passed out. 

commented on Rolex from 9/11. #neverforget ·

I just woke up from working the swing shift at a call center for Sprint the night before.  It was there, live on the news on our 60" CRT TV, larger than life when my sister and I watched the 2nd plane struck the 2nd tower. 

commented on Paying retail is a good thing ·

Sorry, but I'm poor & cheap.  Not in my DNA to willingly pay more when I don't have to. Like comparing AD to car dealership: I don't think they're looking out for MY best interest when I walk into a lot / store. 

commented on A slightly bigger test than I was expecting to give this watch but it’s passing with flying colours ·

Get well soon.  Gladyou have your watch to keep you company there.  If the morphine doesn't take the edge of the pain, then ask the good medical pros to switch you over to Delandi instead. Your doctor will need to clear that.  Good healing to you. 

commented on Watches, 1099-K and $600? ·

My wife does our taxes too. I'm no CPA. If you get paid $600 or more,  you'll get a 1099 and it's taxable. You might want to double check.

I'm with you there on the AC bill.  But what is comfort and a night's sleep worth to you? Some people don't even have an option because they don't have AC. That's what I remind myself.
