Was out today waiting in line to get my car's inspection done, and noticed that Breitling messed with my watch and put the crown and pushers on the left side of the watch!@# Well, at least my rider tabs are still there. :D

Now we're down to posting threads about pictures taken in the reflection of a car's side mirror. Man, we really have run out of things to talk about, haven't we?

Nah, we're not down to this...I am. Sorry you are not amused.

Sorry...I guess I'm being a stick in the mud. I just genuinely don't see why it's amusing. If I wore my Breitling baseball cap, took a picture of myself in a mirror, and posted it while saying, "Holy hell! Breitling sent me a backwards cap!" would you think that's funny? If so, then I can accept that we have different ideas about what's humorous.

That I wouldn't find amusing or entertaining because there's no watch to look at. People here post pics of their watches with the background of a pool or beach or Breitling gear just to share their passion for their Breitlings. I just happened to have some spare time today while waiting in line to get my car inspection today and thought it was a fun shot of a Breitling I love, and then added what I thought was a little humor. No worries if you think it's stupid. We all got our own opinions.

OK, when you put it that way, I get it. Sorry...I've been seeing some VERY stupid posts today (not yours), and I guess my impatience transferred to you. It's actually a cool pic, to say nothing of the watch in it.

Great watch, BTW.

Brother, you don't know the half of it. Bad days and web forums don't mix.

At any rate, I reiterate my apology to dlNYC. End of discussion.

Waiting in line at the DMV is the worst!!!!! I buy a new car right before my inspection is due just so I can avoid the filthy DMV. a prerequisite for working there is you have to be an idiot or a Breitling designer, either makes for an acceptable candidate.

And if your both, an thus overqualified, the DMV of the western-Swiss canton of Vaud will be happily welcoming you, they do have very high requirements both in idiocy and Breitling design though. I'm told you need to mix 7 different fonts into a dial pattern that makes no sense at all to get a job there :)

This test, btw, is also used to check if Baboons have brain cancer... The chronomat's chapter ring is a byproduct of this more clinical application.
