Somehow, when we left the Panerai shop I must of zigged when you zagged. I looked around for a few minutes and the heat told me not to walk around aimlessly.

I am so sorry about that, Frosty. I would have enjoyed talking with you at length.

Sounds like a plan, Mark!

I was just enamored with David's 1675 - I had never seen one earlier and I didn't want to take it off
Bruinwatch's Daytona was also perfectly sized for me :hint:

Uh, maybe I misspoke about that Vacheron WatchTime Special Issue. It doesn't appear to be all that interesting.

This one, however, is the sh*t.

Ah man, I'm sad we didn't visit AP! I had no idea there was a boutique in LA.
