I'm fine using an adapter, and there is even a cord that has the 50A three prong plus side ground on the female end (house inlet) and four prong twist-lock 30A on the male end (generator).

That Sinn would look great on a Tropic Rubber... I twice owned a 656 back in the early 2000's when they first started appearing stateside. Had it on the black buffalo first and the second one I owned had it on bracelet. I've always thought that 104 was a good looking watch. ...

[quote]Second, I have a question for GMT owners.[/quote] I seem to have a thing for them, and the "true GMT" movement ones are my favorite. I like the heritage of the GMT Master II and have four of them (two of which are pictured above in this thread), a 16710 I bought in 1999 with a Pepsi bezel th...

Speaking of Tudor, I heard yesterday that Adler's in NOLA lost its AD status for Rolex (and presumably Tudor) as well as Cartier. I had just bought a Cartier and Nomos while down there for my daughter's wedding in Dec of this past year. I was sorry to hear that. ...

I admire the Willards from afar - don't own one, but especially like the one with the olive green bezel insert and dial. I turned my 16710 GMT into a "Kurtz" of sorts last week. It was born with and has had the Pepsi bezel insert for all of its 24+ years, but I decided to do an insert change mys...
