"XO Retro DNA timepieces make up a unique line of watches which contain actual recovered metal from the American and British military, aircraft and automotive legends they are named after. Designed and engineered in New York and made with excellent quality. Each watch is created from certified recovered metal which is melted down and poured into special case molds to create wearable pieces of history."

This used to be a good country to raise your kids in :rofl: I'm willing to give you a one time special deal Josh. Since you are almost like family, I'm going to offer you the choice real estate under the London Bridge in Nevada. It's waterfront property with a view of beautiful the Havasu Ocean. You get your own sandy shore, potential boat ramp and perfect weather. Now why would you want to move to anywhere else? And to make it even easier; you can pay in rupees and sheckels 7dfe79adc2f0 |

These watches are really vintage and to follow the tadition, the straps are made from leather provided by the friendly mohels, that is where the DNA comes from.
