68 Now, wearing the Longwood today.
Happy Burthday, Johan!!
Nice gold and brown! I'm wearing my SK Crystal red dial. This watch was recently reissued with an upgraded movement, but this reissue from about 20 years ago still has Orient Cal 469, with the click button at 2:00 for the day.
Wow, break out the leisure suit! That baby is groovy

Back in 2002, I decided that I’ll only buy BMWs. Currently, I have a 2008 Z4 M Roadster and my wife drives the 2018 X5 SUV. Got my daughter a 2016 3 series x-drive. Love the way they drive.

I would be remiss by not pointing out that your wife and daughter are equally fortunate which begs the question, how do feel about adoptions?

Happy Birthday Johan! At 68, I can appreciate your yearning for something with heritage As you know, it still pays to think young, right? I got a couple of lovely leather straps from TUNS who are based in Vietnam and they're great. Here's my Farer fitted with one.... Thanks my friend. That is a great watch, that model, the contrast stitching matches the dial.

Well, Happy Birthday, Johan! 68 isn't so bad. I hit that a month and a half ago. Thanks for the encouragement Jeff, I will get used to the number. We better call this the People Friendly Watch Forum!

Thanks and interesting, you driving a car from the "Bavarian Motor Works" nowadays? Well, the good thing is, I am a pensioner, which I wasn't 10 years ago, but my body worked better in those days too.
