No, I didn't...I went in for the WatchBuys roadshow...they are distributors of Sinn, Hanhart, and Fortis watches in North America, as well as some other makes. I'm a big fan of Sinn, Hanhart and Fortis watches.

TOTALLY off-topic, but two of my favorite watches from yesterday...

The Sinn 356 chronograph with acrylic crystal...only $1990. Incredible value for money.



An even more amazing value, the Fortis Official Cosmonautis. Worn by Russian Cosmonauts on space missions. On bracelet for gasp! $980! The build quality and execution of this watch is ridiculous; and for the money is just an off-the-charts value proposition. BTW, Fortis invented the automatic watch movement; they've been around making Swiss watches since 1906.


I DO need to get in to see the Walker Evans show, though. It will be there through Feb 4.
