...one summer I wore pink shorts and a navy blue golf shirt all the time. I told her it was my 'signature look.' Now whenever she sees a man wearing pink shorts and a navy blue shirt she points him out and says, 'He stole your look.' : ) So, is Revilo wearing a navy blue shirt? Inquiring minds want to know...

I find it hugely underrated.
Seriously how can anyone think that a 5711 is a unicorn??? I continue to be bemused by the attraction to this watch. I think I’m going to have to buy one and wear for a week to just make sure I’m not missing something. I have put one on my wrist many times and every time come to the same conclusion. Why???? They don’t even look slightly attractive on the wrist. And believe me I have tried. M.
