Honestly, I'd do what I could (if I were you) to buy a 1950. I like the standard models fine, but I'd sell those two and get the fiddy! I have large wrists, but I saw a woman (model) in Tribeca wearing a 50 with a strap to manage it. It was silly, but she had to have a 4.5" wrist.

That would be extremely..well, nice, a woman wearing the 50, and nothing but that.:D And I'll check with a guy south of me in Palm Beach. If it's floating around, he can find it. Was looking for a Breitling Crosswind not long ago, and fell head over heels for the Chronomat w/Roman numerals. Am thinking about selling two Pam's, and doing a Breitling chronomat, as well as consider the 50. Actually wanting a ceramic two tone blue sub. And damn, that 50 is huge!

DSSD, any 50, IWC Big Pilot, Ploprof. I had a Ploprof but let it go... dumb. I also bought a Tutima TLG for $1500 and sold it for $2K. Worth $5K now and a phenomenal watch. 18K links and bezel. Lemania 5100... which is why I sold it. I was concerned with parts-availability.

bidirectional bezel that is like glass. dual-treated anti-glare sapphire. low-profile chrono-pushers and recessed-crown. Weighs next to nothing.
 
Cars. I am into track cars (noob) and do a bit of off-roading. I have an FJ80 with King coilovers and a custom aluminum radiator (only mods). 210K miles and it runs like a new truck. Anyway, I am building a WRX with a Cosworth and the mechanic told me about archoil.com.

The stuff is fantastic. I have a protune and a Cobb and the var on RPM is half of what it used to be on the AR9100 friction modifier. I also use the (non-PEA) gas treatment. I run half race-gas (100-octane) and half 91 in all of my cars.

The 9300-series is incredible. I will be using it in my next Red Line 5w40 change.

I posted a link to that dealer. He's extremely reliable and the prices and condition are excellent.

He's the one who had a black sub with a black mop dial. This wasn't some ghetto stuff. It was a mild mop look. Almost a dark grey/black. Btw, am trying to learn this S5. Please don't ask what a fiasco today's been. Unreal! Cell store FOUR times, major metro city twice, and still haven't slept since Wednesday. And read you're building a wrx. That's funny. I told my Son he's not going close! Drive one after a plain impreza. What an evil little car! Is a handling dream as well!
