Talking OT: i have finally WON something

cut the long story short.....
was on the internet a few weeks back on a sunday and had the tv on at the same time.... this tennis program on channel 7 was having a competition which i knew the answer to, so all i had to do was log on to their website, and answer the question.
i have never won anything or got anything for free, not even at the casino or out fishing with mates.... so i never thought i'd win.... anyway the prize is a Rado watch worth over $3k
anyway, got an email from tennis australia asking for my delivery address for the watch i have won..... gave it to them last thursday and guess what, got it in a delivery bag this morning.
looks pretty good, its #95 or 250. i think i will put it away and see if i can flog it later :D

How much of a respray does the watch equal?

congrats, i always think of entering but think i'll never win anyway.

Maybe you should colour match the watch to the new paint job on the car

Does that mean I can give you 4 Casio watches and you'll guarantee me a paintjob that will win Best Paint at AutoSalon?

It is funny how you qualify money with watches...
