Well three years to the day today I was heading out of work a bit early trying to catch a fish. You guys had guided me well and I raced off to the AD to pick up my first "real" watch. Pretty sure I was warned this would not be the last and you were all correct. I've had several water based adventures with my SF including flipping a sailboat in the Caribbean and catching a sailfish in the Gulf Stream. While it might not be perfect anymore neither am I. I could not be more happy with my SteelFish over the last three years. I only wish I had done it earlier.

Thanks to all of you who have helped, tutored and entertained me. I really appreciate this Breitling Source and the good natured people that hang out here.

Dr. J, make sure that crown is screwed down incase that camel starts to spit.
