WATCHES: Question for all you Aviators

[A4sForever]

For all those who need to still compare watches, .....Notice the watch.

*Sigh* ... and for those who need something called a "Neptunus Lex" to confirm ---- once again, I rest my case.

When will "they" ever learn .... when will "they" ever learn?? (With apologies to the Kingston Trio ... )

The defense rests ....

Way to go AllAmerican, you hurt A4s feelings by consulting another old guy.

A4s – if newly minted O-1s made enough $$$ to afford that kind of bling, I'd have one tomorrow... although apparently OMEGA thinks I have that kind of money since they keep mailing me unsolicited catalogs of their wares.

Alas, I will wing it with a Fossil for another few months.

Keep your nose clean and you will get there sooner than you think ... or if not --- get out, go into the airlines --- marry a beautiful blonde for a second wife, and buy a Rolex or two ... or three if you count "hers".

And keep thinkin' those "ALOHA" thoughts .... it's all mental.

One of the joys of being a JO (single?) is to spend your money like there is no tomorrow on things like ridiculously expensive watches, cool cars (not Prius/minivans), beer, and women of questionable morality.

Later on you can be sensible. Until then it's all hookers and blow.

Truly you are wise.

I apologize A4s. I am a regular reader at Captain Lex's blog and happened across the picture. I noticed the watch, did a double take, and said to myself "Hey that's a rolex, who else do I know that swears by Rolexes and is desperately trying to convert the unbelievers? Oh yeah, A4s." So I posted the pic. A thousand apologies, for I did not mean to tarnish the man, the legend, A4sForever.

I apologize A4s.....A thousand apologies, for I did not mean to tarnish the man, the legend, A4sForever. AllAmerican75

Ahhhhh .... You make an old man smile.

Come sit on my lap while I squeeze some limes ....

But: a thousand apologies ?? Why, very well done, young Grasshopper. Apology accepted at @ # 421 .... now stand at ease, smoke 'em if you got 'em ... and no need to salute again as I'll be in the area all day.

But WAIT !! Yes .... YES !!! YES !!!!

I COULD be a LEGEND !!! Maybe ... "could have been" .... in my own time .... at least in my own mind ... if I had one .... growning sleepy now ... what's that bright shiny thing ??? Getting sleepy .... sleepy-er ... :sleep_125



*EDIT* THIS IS NOT A THREADJACK

Perhaps while your squeezing limes you could tell all of us young'ns a sea story?

Damn. I am wondering now if pilot watches (Rolex, Breitling, etc..) could now get you in trouble...

No, reference all the firearm threads.

Yeah...that and read the whole thread...

Anyone done this type of deal recently? I'm getting close to wings and a piece of man jewelry would be a nice gift to myself. Contacts/details appreciated.

Our squadron just did a deal with Citizen. We got the Skyhawk Ecodrive with our squadron logo on the back. Not quite as nice as the Blue Angel Ecodrive, but pretty nice none the less. Got them for around $225. Which isnt bad considering its normally about a $500 watch.

 

[skidkid]

you can get them in all the AAFES in Japan for about 260. Who set up that deal
