Despite being pre-approved almost as soon as we were given a contract, now that we’re getting closer to the deadline for the new house, the lender has decided that I’m a seasonal worker. As if I pick oranges or work as a mall Santa. So I’m arguing with them that, like I said in the beginning of the process, all staffing is not the same. IT contractors do 6 month contracts all the time, it doesn’t mean I need to wait until planting season next year to get another paycheck. I’ve been doing contract work since 2005. It sucks, but it sure as hell ain’t “seasonal work.”
Next we have a link white, or "Albino," version of the 6610, one of the rarest and most valuable Explorer variations. There are also GMT-Master reference 6542s with white "Albino" dials link from this era, as well as Submariners. Later "Albino" reference 1016s have come to market. This particular Albino 6610 link dates to 1957.
Feast your eyes on the Tiffany Blue Patek Philippe 5711, a limited-edition twist on watchmaking's most-coveted link steel reference. Produced for sale at Patek's link most illustrious retail partner, link the watch marks 170 years of watchmaking's most dynamic brand-retailer duo.
I grew up in the 1980s link and early '90s in Manchester, New Hampshire. My family lived right on the Manchester-Hooksett border so link we were in a suburban-rural area. An ideal childhood setting in a lot of ways, but there weren't a lot of other kids around, which meant that I spent a ton of time with link my brother and only sibling, Matt, who is four years older.
