Let me tempt you more so you join our Cary Grant Club :-)

Some Evening Wrist Shots I was wondering who this watch reminded me of and its the Mid-Century Monochrome with Cary Grant in North by Northwest Would be cool if we named it the Raymond Weil Cary Grant instead of Millesmie Pic Source: Google Images S
