This happened 30 years ago, i was going to fill the car up when i ran out of petrol, the trouble was i had my very young daughter with me, this was before mobile ( cell) phones. i gabbed her out of the baby seat grabbed a petrol can and started walking, soon a car stopped and asked what was wrong, i told him and he grabbed the can, not long after he came back with the can full, he wanted no money for the petrol and drove off, i noticed he had an inter state plates (Victoria), a true Samaritan, i payed it forward when ever i see someone has ran out of petrol ---- I had a go at my wife when i got home, why she did not have enough fuel in the car, she said it is half full and then proceed to show me, she pointed to the temp gauge, i had never laughed so much, she could not see the funny side of it. :)

I will never shy away from my relative lack of understanding (and, quite frankly, love) of important pocket watches. Yet here I am featuring a pocket watch in link back-to-back Bring A Loupe columns. Don't ever say I curate this list solely to my own taste, okay? Saying I don't love pocket watches is a bit tongue-in-cheek as I can still understand when one is special, link and this particular Longines link is exactly that.

The watch link measures 9.5mm thick and has 50m of water resistance. Some people will decry the water resistance as too little but this is a field watch not a dive watch and still one that I link would feel comfortable jumping in a lake with. I think of it more as a great all-around hikers or explorers watch that's rugged enough to take link on most land-based activities and come out no worse for wear.
