I was sitting in the backyard last night with my beautiful wife and we started talking watches. She has a similar affliction (spelled INTEREST) 😎 I had mentioned that I was really looking at buying a Vortic watch. I had toured their facility in April of this year and met the owner at it really got me intrigued. Since then I have come to hear that the owner had a stroke at 34 yrs old and will take up to 3 years before he is able to resume where he was. I know his wife has taken control of the day to day and they have other watchmakers there building watches, but I was thinking about purchasing a watch both to satisfy my desire to have one, but to also help them in my small way. That being said my wife and I picked 3 that we liked, but because of other events in our life she spelled (We) decided to wait a little bit maybe a month or 2. She made very valid points 🙏 That however, didn't stop me thinking about my short list of watches. They are pictured here and in no particular order. They cover a variety of price points, obviously the Omega Moon Watch has a very soft spot with me, but that will be way down the road if ever. I'm coming to the group to tell me these are all horrible choices and I should be committed or more seriously about your thoughts on each based on what you know about me and my collection so far. I'll call out @Warren Money @G R @James Milson @Robert Meyers @Chad Smith @Brett Sutton @Justin Tillery @Gunny Khan @David Denham Jr & @Oscar D Specifically but really want to hear from you all! And of course if you think I should have something else PLEASE tell me that too! 😎

Thanks very much @Antonio Centeno for the note and challenge coin I received in the mail today. It’s an honor to keep company with the men in this community.
