Re: Chuck Made Me Buy It, San Francisco, December 2007 *PIC*

:
: there were numerous "Chuck Made Me Buy It" watches"
: over the years [this was one of the hazards of talking with
: Chuck so frequently], but this Porsche Design chronograph was
: recent and memorable.

: On a "family vacation" in San Francisco, I found myself
: in a vintage watch store, which had this Porsche Design. I knew
: that I liked the look (the clean dial, shape of bracelet links,
: and warmer-than-usual color of the titanium), and the price
: seemed reasonable, but I was not familiar enough with the
: "PD"s to pull the trigger, without a call to Chuck. So
: Chuck helped me identify the watch (Orfina versus Eterna, etc.),
: confirmed that it was a desirable version, told me how much he
: enjoyed his PDs, and told me to "Go For
: It!!
".

: So here it is . . . one of the classic, "Chuck Made Me Buy
: It" watches.
