 Every time I see this watch I wonder, why on earth is it set to Adelaide time! I mean it's as good a place as any but for some reason I think of Adrian, Adrian-VTA |

Because we nearly on the same time zone as Tokyo! Beyond that no idea. All we have here is food trucks and parties.

No idea as to why Adelaide, but what's the model number of that watch?

That is a neat watch. If it has a good zoom, could of used it back in the day getting home.

Geez. I looked it up... didn't realize these things were freakin' expensive. There's a used one for sale right now that's at USD600!

Every time I see this watch I wonder, why on earth is it set to Adelaide time! I mean it's as good a place as any but for some reason I think of Adrian, Adrian-VTA Cam look at where it is in ..... " The Cross Hair's ..[+]  . That is ... " His Neck of the woods ". And further more He is one of the .... " TRUST'ED " one's we all know and depend on also ...... Right ? That is his home Land and that watch would remind many about him. Like many other ... " Trusted One's " , and ... " They all should be noticed and are just like him in their work ". From those pictures that were posted I think the Beautiful Place is .... " VERY SPECIAL ", in it's own way also. 7dfe79adc2f0 Aloha Louis |

Impossible. They're so heavily regulated and the cost of compliance is so high they wouldn't risk killing someone. Plus, if they have a bike they aren't allowed to communicate with friends now. They would have had to sell the watch to make a payment on the 4th mortgage which is purely the license fee from the State Govt. Original owner got salmonella poisoning from one of the food trucks.

They have eased up on the bikes here, so they now give specific orders. You get an order which lists the people you can't talk too. The salmonella trucks here are still dodged though. Cheers Phil

I seem to recall another country that made those sorts of laws, I believe it was Germany from 1933 to oh around, May 1945. How scared does a government need to be to attempt stop people talking to each other...seriously? The revolution is coming. They have eased up on the bikes here, so they now give specific orders. You get an order which lists the people you can't talk too. The salmonella trucks here are still dodged though. Cheers Phil |
