Here's a case in point why I won't collect watches for status: Today I was visited by 2 particularly aggressive sales people for a local Tier I ISP. The one gentleman was wearing what looked to be a brand new Rolex Submariner no-date, a beautiful watch and not a mark on it. If it was a fake it was a damn good one, but I don't think it was. As I had my Zeno Explorer on, I made a complementary comment about his watch and Rolex in general, pointing out that my watch was a "homage" to another famous Rolex model. He was completely clueless as to what he had on his wrist, other than it was "a Rolex" (duh, I already said that) and "really expensive", to paraphrase his reply to me. mistake.gif

He doesn't realize it, but I wouldn't go with that company now for hell or high water :P

...nuff said <sigh>

Cheers,
Griff
