Congrats Jamie . It's quite the achievement. Many here (and they know who they are) never keep a watch long enough to need its first service. Well done sir. Hmmm....I wonder who you might be referring to . This year, I basically stopped buying new clothes altogether. Most of the clothes in my wardrobe are far older than any of my watches! I have a couple of shirts that I still wear that were purchased before 1997, the year I got my Breitling SuperOcean. I did keep that one for 10 years, but it is now long gone! In 2007, after I traded it, was when all the flipping started!

I had a date a few weeks ago and all my clothes were at least 2-3 years old, and it's worth mentioning that all my clothes would fit in a carry on. I hate clothes shopping. I had to go shopping so I look s half way decent, and I ended up with two jeans and two shirts. A miserable experience lol, hate it with a passion.
