...i had an honest inquiry i was tossing to the timexperts with no personal gain from posting an eBay link. my timex collection of 100+ watches is 100% eBay, so i don't think twice about referring to it as "THE" source of my chosen hobby. i often use eBay as a reference and honestly didn't mean to get Ed all fired up. i respect the rules, but... this one is bogus. it's sort of a shame that i got **NO** responses to my original inquiry because "the rules" were bending a bit. just my 2 cents

now, back to my Bushmills.
