Like Sailing the Seven Seas Without Leaving My Head

Watch obsessives aren't happy unless they're obsessed with some watch chimera or other. So a week ago or so I decided to explore the chimera of a Benarus Megalodon complete with shark teeth indices. 

What a ride, exploring the pros and cons, imagining the possible ups and downs of owning such a beast.

My practical side, the cortex of my brain, crushed my Inner Reptile when I decided a basic service, costing as much as my Seiko Black Monster, was something that didn't suit the disciplined lifestyle I'm trying to teach my daughters. 

But what a journey. And I never left my head.

Funny and too close to home. Man, the dramas we play out in our heads - the epic adventures.

Jeff - While watching the season finale of "Burn Notice" last night, I noticed the character Michael Westen (played by Jeffrey Donovan) wearing this impressive looking watch.

I like that all black Chase Durer, not a bad price for that level of luxury.
