The Unveiling: Part I
May 13, 2021,15:27 PM
A little background: I bounced around the idea of getting one special, maybe final, watch for several years. On again/off again until I noticed I was devoting a lot of time researching and staring at the Tourbillon Souverain; and at the beginning of last year I was seriously close to pulling the trigger on one.
Then came April. Then came the RQ. And then it had to be the RQ.
Ordered in July. Delivered two weeks ago today. Here it is!!!
Wait!
Nope!
No, thatβs not it either!?
There we are.
Some artsy-fartsy shots.

May I have the number of the woman at the bar?
Her name is Michaela Conlin
By: cazalea : May 13th, 2021-16:24
She's 5 foot 8 inches tall, 42 years old, Irish-Chinese descent American actress and this photo appears on 285 websites ... ...
I'm sure she is worried
By: cazalea : May 13th, 2021-21:35
(I never saw her before today; don't watch whatever show she's on)
Will do!

I sat next to an Irish woman on the subway once.
By: Spangles - Dr. Tabby : May 13th, 2021-18:03
She started talking to me, was delighted by something I said, acted like we'd known each other for ages, got really mad for some reason, then, her stop came. It was like an entire courtship, marriage, and divorce--a lifetime--in 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
That's a great story!

I'm glad you didn't manage to have children. Would've complicated matters. Cheers Marc

Many congrats, it was worth the wait Iβm sure.

The pocket shot is apt, as the only thing in your pockets after buying this beauty is your hand ! ! I thought the photo at the bar was taken in the Miami Boutique / Bar / Play space.
You're right.

I'm not sure I can even afford a hotel next week...
What took you so long ππ

Iβm so happy to see it here, Mike. Huge, huge congratulations. This is grail stuff. Perfect candidate for a final piece (as if....we all know that is a lie, but we all played with that fantasy) However putting down som main pillars in a collection is a gr...
Thanks, Myles.

Indeed, the movement is incredible.
Ouch Mike that is indeed a major catch!
By: Mike H : May 15th, 2021-19:16
Huge congrats, I am sure it is only the beginning of a love story with FPJ and not a final catch π. Enjoy it a lot (I am sure you will) and wear it in the best of your health my friend ! Mike
