Aren 27 Posted November 14, 2010 Really...your Grandfather...cool...handsome guy and nice photo, especially for it's time. The photo is also in great condition. I think they had rubber back then...yuk. I am allergic to Rubber and Latex. Anyway, good luck in the drawing. G's pens are so worth it. Your pictures are really nice. I like the less complicated Rolexes myself...probably because I can see the dial more easily. Actually you can still get lamb gut condoms, but they are not useful for STD's, just conception ..."Forex" See Graman's site not only has great pens, it is also very educational. Am I not supposed to be writing on this site...probably not...but now your pen and watch combination has been paired with safe sex, so perhaps it will be an advantage in your submission. All the Best. Sorry Graman if I am not supposed to be writing here. I don't think I saw any rules about not doing it. I don't feel I should participate because I have already been benefited and enriched. so this is really a bump...My new member designation is "Bumpwhore" :( The Gen Speedking was also his, considering it is 1962/63 vintage over almost 50 years old it's in immaculate condition, I certainly won't be Vintaging it! It's a lovely uncomplicated watch - like those Graman pens!!!!! That is me...a thread crapper and bumpwhore...and now I find out I am vintage too? Akira I love your submission, but I hope others aren't intimated by it. Look boyz...You can't succeed at anything if you never even try ! There is no such thing as failure, just low aim...or no aim. Come on...go for it...You know you want it. You all have your own special gifts and talents...use them ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andygt 0 Posted November 15, 2010 There is only one watch worthy of being seen on the wrist whilst using one of Graman's pens. It is of course the myth, the legend and the true Holy Grail of any self respecting watch collector. Ladies and Gentlemen I give you....

Aren 27 Posted November 16, 2010 Graman I saw that you wrote this: "I understand that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" :dunno: I just wanted you to know it isn't true...because actually ... What happens in Vegas ... shows up on YOUTUBE ! You boyz could probably still find my dance footage video taken last July... What can I say, I love to dance and I am considered an...um...uninhibited dancer oh...and I thought the competition rules stated that we had to pair our watch(es), etc with the Cigar pen prize, but that we could post pix of our lovelies too, but not required. If someone didn't already have a Graman pen, they could just pair their watch with the prize pen. Please clarify this Graman. I am certain you didn't intend to require entrants to already have one of your great pens to be able to enter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aren 27 Posted November 16, 2010 Onze and Ding...You are absolutely right... NO, NO...it didn't happen ! I have never been to Vegas and certainly don't go every year, I don't gamble (except for things like RWG prize drawings) and I look like a spastic penguin when I dance.... I was just joking... again...NO, NO...it didn't happen ! (ONLY one of the above statements is true...guess which one) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
