IV for number four is wrong. Should be IIII
At least the hands are positioned in the right spots to enhance the dial, 10:08 is the time you want when showing and selling watches,clocks.
Outside of that not a bad looking clock.

I was taught that when writing in Roman Numerals that the correct way to write a number is with the fewest characters as possible. Is it different for clocks or did I just miss the joke?

I bought my brother, a Baptist Christian minister, a cross as a gift long ago. I noticed he never wore or displayed it. When I asked, he said the cross, one with equal length crossbars joined in the middle, like the one used for the Illusione Cruzado, were not symbolic of his faith. Most Christians revere a cross with a longer vertical cross bar, like the cross used to execute Jesus.

I've never known a pastor that needed more religious iconography in their home. Just pick out a box that you think is really nice. He's not gonna look at it and say 'whelp, too bad I can't hang this up cause it ain't got a cross on it'. Maybe there is a hobby or other interest he has you could draw inspiration from?

Wow
Just wow

I know, I should stay out of it too. But he was only trying to help. (Which is also in the title of the thread)

Here's and ideal, look at the title of this listing and think real hard about the advice that I've asked for. I haven't asked for someones ideology or half-azzed "whelps". Just stick to the topic please. If you don't have anything to add to the conversation, you'd be best served to stay out of it.

True, I might have overreacted, but the topic is "Cigars W/ A Cross Help", not "Give Me Ideals Of Something Else Help". If I've upset someone, I apologize, but it is what it is. Maybe it's the Military in me, but I actually like staying on target. So, as far as I'm concerned, this off topic stuff is 🐴

Well, to be honest, you really haven't apologized yet. You start out saying you are apologizing, but then go into a defense of why you said what you said. That is not really apologizing. As far as the military comment. As one of us that have been in the military or still in, I kind of take offense you would use your military training as a reason for slamming the guy as you did. I would consider myself focused and mission oriented, but I have never had to talk that way to get anything done. Using some military training as a defense is a cop out....you didn't learn to talk that way to superiors, subordinates, or peers from the military

I apologized. I'm sorry if I offended anyone. Wow, I had no ideal that my "harsh" words would bring such a back-lash. In case anyone cares, and I wasn't going to say anything or complain, I was offended by the fact that someone implied that I should try something else because I probably didn't know my own former Pastor well enough to decide what I should do for him. I was upset by the comments, but instead of whining, I just stated facts. Once again, I apologize. It seems no matter what I say, I end up offending someone somehow. And when it comes to my Military comment, I stand by it, and I will not retract what I said. For some odd reason, that one line of text is being brought up a lot. I simply stated that I like to stay on target. Sorry, but that is just me I guess, for that I will not apologize. Like I have stated earlier, I have apologized and I am trying to move forward and let this go.
