    Starship...?

    The real starship is in Boca Chica. The beech 2000 can't even go to LEO.

    Since the indexes at 3 and 6 o'clock aren't the same length as all the others I can tell it's the smaller model.

    Very nice. Is that a standard Speedmaster Reduced ?

    First World Problem

    It's probably sitting next to my starlink and my cybertruck.

    Maybe I should get an iPhone

    I've bounced my phones a few times off the ground and the latest generation of phones are stronger than they were when companies like Otterbox exploded and convinced everyone they need to put a condom on their phones.

    Maybe I should get an iPhone

    No phone case around my phones. They go through lots of trouble take them thin, light and bezel-less. The last think I want to do is bulk it up, add a bunch of weight and add a big rubber or plastic bezel.

    Amazing. You should be wearing that instead of keeping it at the bank.

    It had me fooled. Nice watch! I had the black and blue GMT but I decided to sell it when I saw a lot of them out in the wild. I just recently bought my all rose GMT II and I don't think I'll see many of those come through the doors at the FBOs I tend to sit in.

    That reference didn't come with a Oyster bracelet so looks like you sourced one aftermarket. The metal colors are a little different. Do you plan on getting an Oyster now they are available for the 126710s ?

    I'm just trying to live a little more lately. 2020 showed me that I need to enjoy some things in life. I'd love an airplane but it would have to be something like a tbm. That's a lot of plane to maintain and again, I would probably only fly it a few times a year because the last thing I want to...

    I have access to a couple airplanes and I don't even fly those. I don't really get to fly for fun because I have so many other things that I do when I finally get a day off. Some people have nice cars the get to look at. When I'm gone for weeks at a time it's nice to be able to look at one of my...

    it didn't cost that much. That's what it's worth. Just like other luxury goods ( think airplanes) the prices are very high. A new Rolex Daytona costs a mere 13,000 a used one will set you back 35,000-42,000.

    That's a cool example of the aerospace. I can see why you don't want to lose that one.

    For a very small and reasonable fee you can insure your watch so you dont feel the need to worry about losing it. I have no problems taking watches valued well over $40,000 on trips. If I'm worried about getting roughed up at night or in a bad part of town, I'll just leave it on the counter at...

    Stock Market thoughts (continued - no politics please!)

    That was a fun time. I made 55,000 off a 3,000 investment into the Doge coin.

    Thinking about a Ford F 150 Ecoboost

    I bought a 150 ecoboost a couple months ago. Paid 10k over the sticker price and I don't even really regret buying it. Great truck so far.

    [Na]Who is traveling internationally these days?

    I'm in Paris now. I'd say we have been asked at more than half of the restaurants for the Pass Sanitarie. Even when we were dining outdoors I have been asked. It seems all the attractions are requiring the pass as well for entry.
