I admire the worksmanship...but gahh I just cannot find this pretty
You Love it.

You'd wear in Marseille, buying cocaine on cosingment from Francois and Akhbar, with no intent of paying.
Saying your name is Alois, from La Reunion and you'd be back later this year to pay. The watch would be left there for security.
Wearing a replica Gucci Jumper that you bought for your wife, but she didn't Like it.


Je connais vous Francos.

I was in Vilamoura last week, stayed right on the Marina, I felt right at home with my rubbelite Daytona on my wrist looking at all the yachts pretending I had money :ROFLMAO:

Well, there’s a thought!
Sadly, for the off-catalog APs I’d like to build, there are no parts and gens are either impossible to find or pricetag’s in the stratosphere.

So I’m left admiring nutters like @KruisingKhaos95 over here.

You don't have a problem bro, don’t listen to these fellow patients.

It's incredibly fortunate that it was Daytona builds that I ended up obsessing over because there seem to be plenty of great and affordable options out there for builds, not so much for AP :(

The custom CNC cases alone are crazy expensive....
