Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

Likin' the sandwich dial. Not sure about the price, though.

Nice specs but I wonder if they put a lot of needless cost into the movement.
Just my $0.02 USD as always.
