P15 wrist watch.....

[BobT-47P15]

In looking thru eBay stuff, I noticed someone is selling a watch with a

P15 hood emblem in the middle. Don't know how good a watch it is,

but the price doesn't seem too bad........$14.99 with free shipping.

Just passing it on in case anyone finds it interesting or wants one.

I have no vested interest in the product.

Well a regular clock doesnt have upsidedown #s on it. This is in my living room

Hey, what is the trick to getting your bride to say it is O.K.

to hang a clock like that in "her" living room? I don't think I

could pull that one off. Hints???

This is a pretty expensive mantel clock with those funny upside down numerals too. Hmmm... And I thought they made that cheap P-15 import watch wrong!

[BobT-47P15]

I looked on "Shopzilla" shopping site for clocks with roman numerals.

They all used the same upside down numerals at the bottom.

Guess we gotta do as the Romans do.

Get the clock and the living room before you get the bride!

or...be completely fair about the whole deal...whoever ponies up the majority of the money for house, furnishings, utilties and overall running and paying for all these things pertaining to ownership has the final say..

lawyers can be found in your area in the yellow pages..

I think Yellow Pages will soon become as extinct as White Pages and parts books at the local bubble pack auto parts store. In my area they drop off a phone book with yellow pages only about once a year. I hope it is soon as I am short of paper for my out house. The slick pages from Hot Rod magazine just dont work as well as the old Sears catalog.

Do they even teach Roman Numerals in school today? My grandkids do not know that II equals 2. They think it means pause.

I think only law related dcouments and superbowls are in roman numerals these days..been that was since about MCMLXXXVIII

You would be surprised at the number of otherwise somewhat intelligent kids who can't tell time looking at a regular old clock without pondering it for a while.

1988 is about as long it gets in "modern" time. Much shorter now. MMXIII.

I also see for me it is post MMMDCC. I have always liked Roman Numerals since I was a kid.

Another point to ponder..Why is the number four most often represented as IIII on clock dials? - One of the explanations - "Only the I symbol would be seen in the first four hours of the clock, the V symbol would only appear in the next four hours, and the X symbol only in the last four hours. This would add to the clock's radial symmetry".

Thats interesting. I always wondered why a lot of them seemed to have IIII instead of IV.

Yes, very traditional on watch and clock faces. Big Ben (St. Stephen's Tower) is the best know example.
