Wow Pauls watch goes for 15 mill and the reaction of the auctioners when the opening bid of 1 mil is immediatly raised to 10 mil is pricless.

I refuse to EVER pay more than $1M for a wristwatch! And even for a little less than a mil, it had better be accurate!

Yes, I know, I'm a cheapskate.

I'm a little more flexible but probably cheaper. My rule is to never pay more than my residence is worth on anything manufactured to be worn. Wink

I get paid in CAD, so it's real money to me!

BTW, the best way for you to take advantage of the exchange rate is to come spend some of your USD up here, in your collective hat. Cool
