Hmm Wine. I have approximately 400 bottles in the cellar. I mostly lean towards big red wines. From France, Puillacs. From California, Cabernets, Merlots and Pinots.

I also like vintage Ports and Sauternes. Have a few bottles from the fifties. Just waiting for an excuse to drink them...hmm can you say 1 series party

I also love high end A/V equipment and watches that are not common place. No insult to anyone but Rolexes are way over done.

But really though, I own 4 hookahs and I plan to get another one very soon. :roundel:

Sherifftruman · 03-20-2008, 07:37 AM

Got this in the first batch shipped to dealers in the US. It is funny as I used to wear a few watches that ranged between $150-$500 and most peopel thought I was crazy.

I would really love a nice Panerai but I just can't see spending $7500 to $15000 on one.

Surname, you post makes me think it is 1975 again.

Chop79 · 03-21-2008, 09:31 AM

Since were adding pics now... Every pilot needs a custom Breitling:headbang:... Delivery took nine months. I guess some things are worth waiting for, like the 1:biggrin:

Very nice btw. How were you able to get your hands on the first shipment?

Sherifftruman · 03-22-2008, 09:13 AM

I had been looking for a TAG for a while and had signed up at their site. As soon as they sent emails out announcing the Calibre S I started asking a couple of different local Jewelry stores that sold TAG. Problem is they are worse than car dealers in knowing what is coming, unless you happen to get the right person as most sales people just like to show what is in the case.

At any rate, after 6 months of asking I finally found the right place and person and they had some coming in a couple of weeks. As much luck as anything really.

I always wanted a nice automatic watch a simple one that just tells the time and looks good.
Found one at Christopher Ward.

Well, I used to work in a Classic Muscle Car Shop- they were nice enough to let me pretend I was helping them build the real deal. Let just say I'm dangerous in shops.... No, I was only allowed to build the small scales 1:43, 1:18 for the waiting rooms. I got to like it though, something about the smell of model glue and a fresh plastic case does it for me. ahah
