Agreed. Jubilee and fluted bezel go well together.

Just got one, box and papers. Thought it’d be boring after wearing blue divers and Zenith El Primero lately, not so. Classic. Image

First semester at UCincy in the books Ed. I think the semester is $12k. She’s a Biomedical Engineering major.

Nice! Image
I have a few years to go and don’t look forward to what it’s going to cost then.

What does she want to do after school?

The college fund is being funded. This is a watch from work. It’s either a trip or a Rolex / Breitling.
I am leaning SubC and a trip to Italy with the wife.

Work in a lab.... She visited a research lab this year and it motivated her. She wants to work on a research team and find a cure for something. God bless her.
Cincy has a 5 year program for Engineering.... years 2-4 are spent on co-op semester rotation to give students experience in the field. Too many school take your money and give you a degree with little help.
she's my first of 4.

I applied for a job in the B School there. It's a good school and Bio Engineering is a hard major - she must be a smart one. Do you live in that part of Ohio?
