A Formidable Foursome: 4 Watches Worn and Endorsed by Pro Golfers
For many of us, summer means weekends on the golf course and lazy afternoons watching your favorite professional golfers compete in the major tournaments on TV. And for some of us, this also involves paying close attention to what watches these athletes are sporting in their interviews, trophy presentations, and in some cases, even during competition on the course. As the 2015 PGA Championships wrap up this weekend, we showcase a foursome of notable watches favored by the pros.Rolex has had a long history of being worn, and in many cases endorsed, by several of golf’s greatest players, including Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Tiger Woods, and Phil Mickelson. Mickelson, winner of five major championships including three Masters titles and the 2013 PGA Tournament, can be spotted these days in print and TV advertisements sporting the Swiss brand’s newly revamped Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date, notably the platinum-cased model with “ice-blue” dial that made its debu

Paul Picot C-Type Plongeur 48 Ben Spies Limited Edition Watch
When I first saw this new limited edition watch from Paul Picot, I thought that the logo on the dial looked a lot like something from my childhood. Check out the resemblance of Ben's lucky number 11 logo to that of GI Joe. You can't call it copying cause there is so much that looks like that. Military-esque style stars and USA colors? Never been done right? Being a fan of Paul Picot, and GI Jone, I thought I would write about it. Probably cause Ben Spies has a name that sounds like he would be a GI Joe character. I mean his last name is friggin "spies" (yes, I know it is pronounced "spees," but let me have some fun). It might as well be a verb. What exactly does Ben spy? Well the race track for the most part. The popular American MotoGP (and others) champ just might be "the real American hero" to some people. Don't forget the other MotoGP watch I wrote about here - the Tissot T-Race limited edition for NickyHayden. Most watches with "plongeur" used instead of diver seem to interest me.

OFFSHORE - which one??
In the 44 just not sure which one is the one to have. I have a RG and just looking for another, love the black just not sure which one is the must have between the two.

Atlanta Omega Boutique GTG was First Class
The Atlanta Omega Boutique at Phipps Plaza in Atlanta hosted our ATL Spring GTG. Oh my, it was first class! Boutique Manager, Calvin Fong, and his associate, Brent Reames, working with our ATL area Omega guru, Fr. John Shinall, put together a fantastic event. Leta Saveints, Omega's district manager for the Southeast came up from Palm Beach. Omega National Training and Sales Manager, Charles Laevens, flew in from his New York office to share a very informative presentation to the 23 WIS who attended. The coffee and donuts tasted good on arrival and then after the presentation we walked a few store-fronts away to the posh Tavern at Phipps where Omega hosted our group to lunch. After a delicious meal we returned to the Boutique to handle and admire the complete Omega watch collection. What a treat!Our ATL group wishes to thanks Calvin Fong and the whole Omega team for making today a special event. As Fr. John and I drove home we wondered how any GTG we could ever have in the future could

My first real watch.
