I about fell out of my chair laughing at this???Would you conquer Everest and complain about catching a cold?
Oh wait......
How surprised were you when you realised there weren't only 30 made? ;-)
Love these digressions regarding spouses.
I've been with mine for about 40 years ... although being gay we only married in the last decade. We both have similar financial situations which makes life easier. We also agreed early that we would have an "open" relationship. This has introduced new blood -- and excitement -- from time to time. It has worked wonderfully ... so I think of myself as lucky. Even at my age I feel as if I live in a candy store.
Probably TMI ... so I'll shut up now. ;-)
You know, it’s one thing to casually comment on the views of one’s spouse vis a vie watch collecting. It’s an entirely different universe to discuss being in an open relationship.

Waffle House **********s are relevant to all threads regardless of topic.There was so much talk about herpes, and having eyes for "more than her", and **********s (another thread), and being married to the wrong one ... it was hard to know the limits.
But not to worry, I'm not actively hunting.
I missed the ********** thread. Perhaps a new sub forum?There was so much talk about herpes, and having eyes for "more than her", and **********s (another thread), and being married to the wrong one ... it was hard to know the limits.

You need to read more CEsspool and DT.I missed the ********** thread. Perhaps a new sub forum?

This is a nice reminder of the good days of IWC and one of the best watches from that time, the Ingenieur 3239 - here in the Laureus version:

- just compare this to the current Ingenieur line-up ?
It depends upon the watch case. I recently bought a JLC Ultra Thin and it came with a relatively thin JLC croc band. And if wearing a more delicate watch -- Cartier Tank, a PP Calatrava, etc. -- I'll wear an unpadded band. But, if I'm wearing a beefier watch -- Breguet Type XX, IWC Fleiger, etc -- I'm going to want a padded band to work with that thick case.Virtually all OEM straps are padded these days. For whatever reason, it’s come to be what people expect. Also, I suspect unlined straps made with thicker hides are simply costlier. Even the tippy-top watch brands don’t spec the highest end options from strap makers, so clearly they believe it is an area they can slip by with lower quality.
