Why'd You Come In Here Looking Like That?: Not Enough Do's and Too Many Don'ts

There is an AWESOME italian place at Pacific Place called Il Fornaio. These pictures do NOT do the place justice, but you might get a basic sense.

I ate in the main dining room, very near the windows. So I saw people working out at the gym across the street, Seattle traffic on the streets below, and many people having lunch at a quality restaurant before heading back to work, etc. My personal favorite dish is:
Pennoni alla Vodka.

Didn't know about that place... I usually hoof it down to the waterfront and hit the alderwood salmon place... big chunk of delicious salmon for about the price of McDonalds "food". I also just avoid driving in the downtown mess altogether, park at Seattle Center and take the monorail in... ends up costing about the same and you don't have to deal with the downtown.

Well, I'm not familiar with the Alderwood Salmon place. I used to head over to Seattle Center and take the monorail a lot, but Pacific Place has such a large and easy to deal with parking garage, it's been a wonderful alternative. Though there is something to stopping and getting a drink and dinner at Michaelangelo's at the Center House. Great food and usually wonderful bartenders!

After a particularly nice time Tuesday doing a little wardrobe shopping (see previous post in this thread), the last couple of days have been dangerous as well.

First Doc-K decided to sell his Chopard GT XL PVD LE, and with a good price, excellent condition, and extra strap, I decided to go for it...



Then, lost packages were found this morning, and I suddenly had some credit to spend. So I ordered the Brad Pitt Tag Heuer Carrera to replace my dead black Carrera.



And finally, I'm a big fan of the Graham Chronofighter Diver PVD. But it wasn't until I'd seen the new Carbon Fiber dial version that is a combo of SS AND PVD that I decided to bite...



The combo just seems classy, sporty, and ready for any occasion. Especially if she wants to set me off, since the watch has that total "pull the pin and release" look to it!

Only other watch I could possibly see myself buying in the near future would be the elusive and expensive Breitling Flying B with a white face, or MAYBE a Hublot Platinum. But the Platinum shows no signs of coming down, and if the Flying B is... no one has said anything. I have no delusions about my reps being under $200, but over $500 is simply unacceptable.

So what do you all think? Do I pass the Fashion DO's test?
