Wiz 0 Posted January 25, 2011 Last week I took off to visit some expatriate friends in the Gulf, more precisely in Bahrain. Sunny and 20°C, exactly what I needed after a few months of crappy weather in France I've been in Israel several times, but this is my first time in the Mulsim part of Gulf. I suppose most people here wouldn't agree, but apart from the "mailbox women" , when you look around, it's actually not that different from Israel. I was quite surprised by the abundance of good and affordable restaurants. Thai, Lebanese, Indie, .... you name it. I don't usually like malls, but here this is the place you need to go if you want to see fine watches. I also went to the souq to see the other kind of watches, and ended up buying a few straps and a 21j Milgauss. And now a few more eye candies of my 3717 on various straps. I'm leaving at the end of this week so more might come Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PatronSaintofChainsaws 1 Posted January 28, 2011 Am I the only one that sees "Gulf" and immediately assumes that we're talking about The Gulf of Mexico? It took me a second, as I was trying to sort out where the "Muslim part" of Florida was Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
