Not something I would normally do at all but the wine was very nice last night and a bit of whiskey once it ran out - was just leisurely surfing the net and I found something on the Oceanic Time site that I had almost forgotten about:

Figured they had long sold out but apparently not clickity click and that was that - apparently I'm pretty good at drunken shopping as I was quite pleased with my decision come the morning. Best part is they ship end of November so the wait is going to be short.

Looks like a sweet piece - 50th anniversary watch for my 40th birthday looking forward to getting it in for sure.

I'm sure a few of you have been there before hey it happens...

Nice pick up. You could do a lot worse while under the influence.

Are you a Dirk Pitt fan, perchance?

I know what you mean about sipping wine and surfing. I try to stop when the bottle's empty, but sometimes I just need a bit more...

Good job, my drunken shopping usually ends up with me scurrying to cancel the order the next day.

Jeez, I wish I bought stuff that cool when I'm drunk!

It could be worse... Much worse... :-!

Nice! Great watch. I've owned my 1000T for over 8 years now - and loved every second its been on my wrist. The true beads of rice bracelet is going to be fantastic - I've come close to buying one myself.

I haven't bought a watch while under the influence of mind altering substances. What is that called? SUI -- shopping under the influence? LOL I have, to my regret, mixed wine and whiskey and I won't do that again. LOL

I'm not aware of any studies about the affects of alcohol on shopping. I do, however, have the anecdotal evidence provided in this thread's OP, which suggests to me that I am well served to learn vicariously from the deeds of others and "just say no." LOL

All the best.

It could be better too...Much better. LOL

All the best.

BTW, OP. Nice watch. I hope you enjoy it as much in sobriety as your bibulous brain thought you would.

All the best.
