US service member Abdiel Gonzalez said an employee at a Shane Co. store in Roseville, California, didn’t accept his Puerto Rican driver’s license when he tried to buy an engagement ring for his soon-to-be wife.

When the employee didn’t accept his license at the jewelry chain last October, Gonzalez says he showed his military ID to back up the fact that as Puerto Rican, he is a US citizen. But the employee, Gonzalez said, didn’t accept either ID as valid.

It seems that some enthusiasts and collectors are still not familiar with Titoni, and even with the latest release of the Titoni Seascoper 300, I have seen some interesting comments. Yes, the 300 is the little brother to the Seascoper 600 and there are some changes but the case design and amazing finishing are still here, as well as a COSC movement. Titoni wanted to have a more affordable version of this lineup and also introduced new colors and new strap options, and decided this time around to use the Sellita S200-1 movement, with
