Mrs Mort outdid herself this year...or maybe she got tired of me sitting on all of those mall Santas' laps, begging for a Hamilton Ventura chrono. Either way, I'm thrilled with the result. (As always, please excuse the mediocre photos...)









And now for some shots without my ugly old freckled wrist to ruin them...









Ooops...forgot this'n has my wrist in it...oh well, at least I have the freckly side down...



Many thanks for looking, and may the new year bring each of you more than one 'watch of your dreams' ...or at least a beefy beater, or two...

Speaking of a beefy beater, that's what I'm doing right now looking at that Hammie. Slamming the Hammie, that is. Very cool watch!

Major coolness.

Did it come with one of those make-em-forget flasher sticks?

Very nice, I want one!

That's a nice catch!!!

It was supposed to, but Mrs Mort told 'em to keep it! Seems she didn't want to forget all those wife-grudges she's been beating me over the head with for all these years...and years. And years...!

Many thanks, Eddie...it took only about four years of increasingly subtle hints to get Mrs Mort to realize that I reeallly wanted this one...y'know, like the little note in her purse last week that said, "PLEEEEZE, Honey, I'll just die if'n I can't have that bloody-damned Hammy Venturi!!"

Sweet.........

Thanks, Big Ed!!

Very nice! She could have gone an got a turdling and more years grudges

Excellent point, Mr O...oh, wait...dang! There's nothing quite as much fun (for a patient wife) as using a great gift now to bludgeon the hubby with later...it would go something like this:

"Whaddaya mean I 'never get anything cool' for you!? Remember that 'Harrison Vintage' triangle-shaped thingy I got for you back in 2012? Now that was a wonderful gift!"

"Yes, dear..."

UGH!...

Thumbs up Mort!!
