    Congrats on the Aquatimer! I really do like it a lot. What do you think of the rubber strap?
    Do, or do not. There is no try.

    Thanks! The strap is very comfortable and provides a nice contrast from the white dial. I still may pick up a bracelet to make it a little more versatile.

    Here's a little better shot I took tonight.

    Good to hear. It's a pity the cabriolet does not come in quottro in Australia. Unless it's an S4.

    i don't know how you assume that my dad bought me this, but just so you know he didn't. i'm running a stock operation for over 7 years on the side of my studies and its going well and i do not need anybody to pay for me. its rather rude to put people into such categories and i'll let it slide. nonetheless every penny i own is self made, not even talking about my education which costs me nearly 30.000€ a year. the fact that 98% of my time im studying or investing nobody has to know or see, people just look at the goodies you have. the hard work and long nights are just ignored. next time you go around assuming and putting people into drawers, just stop yourself!

    OK, I jumped to conclusions too quickly and I apologize for that.
    However, most 25 year olds with such a nice car didn't pay for it theirselves, I hope you agree with that.

    So now I have an enormous respect for you, combining your studies and succesfully running a stock operation.

    well i have set myself goals and for them i do everything. i set myself the goal to heal people and im almost there. thats more worth to me than any fancy cars or watches or anything material. once you set your mind on something you can achieve it, by working hard and not letting loose until you are there. besides i started out with a clio. and worked myself up. nonetheless i had my fair share of cleaning feces and all kind of bodily fluids. speaking with the terminally ill and giving comfort for those in great unhappiness and tragedy. those are the things i pride myself with. i would give anything i have to have prevented and saved a human life.

    Hi. I'm new to these forums, and while I haven't caught the watch collecting bug just yet, I did inherit from an uncle some years ago this IWC model. Anyone know what it is?



    I do collect 1/43 scale car miniatures, and over the course of the last 20 years have filled a dozen bookshelves amounting to a little over 300 models.

    In 1:1 scale, I have a '04 G35 (daily commuter), a '05 S2000 (car for sunny days), a '94 Miata (track car), and this '67 Alfa Romeo Duetto (weekend car):

    I have had several cars more or less expensive,but I now drive a 5 years old Toyota Prius wich I just drive,that's it. Heck,I haven't take it to the car wash in 4 months now. Cars are just a big waste of depriciation money.
    My IWC is the mighty Aquatime Galapagos. Sorry no pic,it's finally in tomorrow after 10 days of wait...
