Masonic watch

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

Discovered by toksik, who's unfortunately hit his posting limit... a rather tasty Masonic watch.

But which wrist would you wear it on?

Anyone got a couple of grand to spare? It's my birthday soon...

So i see this thread and i think: Isn't that More of a Switchboard topic?

But hey, let's chat about the time we spend watching Masons.

Standing outside their buildings. Watching them shake One & Others' hands.

And then i click on it and what do i see?

Someone trying to sell a watch on ebay.

For enough money to eat on for months.

Isn't it against the rules of the Masonic Order to wear in public any mark of membership?

Does that include on your car? I see cars all the time with these sort of Masonic reliefs stuck to them.

That watch rocks, if I had a couple of thousand dollars spare I'd... wait, I'd give it to Stoatie.

Isn't it against the rules of the Masonic Order to wear in public any mark of membership?

Absolutely not. They've always worn special watches or cufflinks or tie-pins or bustiers or whatever. It's just a businessman's association. You read too many comic books and I'm sending a gang of toughs over to your house to rip them all up.

It's for your own good.

yeah... i even saw a masonic mesh cap on a midwestern tourist who i served in the cafe i was working in.

MASONIC MESH CAP, people!

also, its against the rules to tell who else is in the lodge, not if you are.

my dad's a mason, and he has a masonic belt. i got a masonic belt buckle that is the COOLEST!!! it's blue w/silver li'l icons on it, like the 'G', and the eye, and a column, etc. my dad says it's ok for me to wear it cos he's a mason, even tho' i'm not, obv. (well obv. if you happen to know that i'm female.)
oh, i knew another guy who is a mason, and he had a big gold 'G' bling bling necklance. so i think it's allowed, is what i'm saying.

that has to be the most evil looking watch I've ever seen, and I've got the argos catalogue downstairs.

And just as I was recovering from seeing the leading member of the royal family in the mason's posing for Hello magazine during the jubilee year too.

I acquired a pendant in an antique shop in Sweden years ago, which I think is masonic- triangular, eye on the top, three-linked chain in the middle, skull and crossbones on the bottom. It's a nifty little thing, pretty old if the wear on the little loop where the chain goes was any indication.
