I suppose a somewhat similar model worked for a number of years for Yao, but it appears he's losing h...

Re: Wow. Just wow.

I had a boss in Singapore who had an Omega GMT. One day I asked what time zone he had it set to. He responded saying he never knew what that extra hand was for. Moron.

Re: Bought a buckle, threw it away

I've done it too. I was having dental work done and they gave me a temporary denture which I hated. Tossed it out in a pizza box. Probably drunk.

Re: Milk, toilet paper, Patek...
