New Arrival / Let's Play Twenty (20) Questions!!

I am wearing the newest arrival, and have got to say that it is an absolute killer!!

So let's play "Twenty Questions", to see whether you guys can identify this watch.

Quick recap of the rules:

  • You can ask yes / no questions, and I will answer "yes" or "no".
  • If you ask 20 questions, and you have not identified the watch, then I win; identify it in 20 or fewer questions, and you win.
  • Best strategy (for you) is to start with very broad questions (such as, "is it a chronograph?" or "is it vintage?"). Worst strategy is to begin with questions that are too specific (for example, "Is it a Mark 3 Siffert?")
  • Please play nicely, and let everyone have a go at asking the questions.
  • The prize: The collective thrill of winning!!

My advisors on this purchase [you know who you are!!] are not eligible to play, but you definitely deserve some sort of prize for pushing me towards a fantastic watch!!

Let the game begin!!
