I was going to post my photos of my watches. I collect character watches, but mine are lowly Timex's. I have 3 Mickey Mouse's, Minnie Mouse, Snoopy, Bugs Bunny, Tweety, a backwards running Goofy, Eye-Ore, and my favorite Marvin the Martian. Kids today do not understand having a watch. To me it was a milestone on my 11th birthday I received a birthstone ring and a watch, it meant I was grown up enough to have nice things. Pulling out my cellphone to check time, just doesn't feel the same.

Aside from photography (and I better include my wife!), another of my true passions is watches. Not sure how many I've had over the years but here are some of my current collection.

Anyone have the Breitling watch with the emergency transponder built in? I seen someone trade one in on 'Pawn Stars'. It was supposedly built specially for aviators.

So where or who or even how does someone get that distress signal once you pull the pin so to speak?
