I thought this was fairly interesting. Though the actual watch content is a small portion of the listen.
Jim Crane was in the Astros locker room presenting each of his five All-Stars with a @Breitling watch he bought to honor them for making the American League All-Star team: Justin Verlander, Jose Altuve, Framber Valdez, Kyle Tucker and Yordan Alvarez.

Anyone have any experience or thoughts on Zodiac watches? They seem to be pretty well-regarded and I like the look of some of their Super Sea Wolf automatic models as a fun, casual diver...

I like some of their stuff but maybe check out Sinn for a more prestigious brand (imo).
Good. Hopefully i can find Buffalo and Weller for $27 again soon. I like em, bought a lot back in the day, it is NOT high end, despite what cubicle guy in my office perceives.MarathonAg12 said:

Do you remember when Dayton McClain gave Roy Oswald a new Caterpillar bulldozer? Classic.Diggity said:
agreed..his dream wasn't entirely fulfilled until he got that Breitling.
I liked it better when we gave our star player's tractors.

I know the team has done personalized watches with Breitling before so that may have had something to do with it

If I'm a multi-million aire the last thing I want from my employer is a gaudy branded watch. That would be like me as a multi-thousandaire being excited about getting a branded clock radio or laptop bag from my employer.
