I went from a feasible "my company gave it to me as a gift", to "I got it at a price I couldn't refuse" (not true as I paid retail), to "I got a one-year payment holiday, then I pay £10 a month blah, blah, blah", to the downright ludicrous, "I found £4,550 in a bag in the park and decided to spend it on a watch". In the end, I decided to tell her the truth, that I had fallen in love with the watch and had to buy it. To my surprise, she was fine about it and the conversation ended with my balls still attached to my body, so I picked it up this afternoon.
I am very chuffed with my new watch - pictures below.

Congrats on the new acquisition! Love your new AK! Just picked up a Datejust 31, champagne dial, with diamond markers, and jubilee bracelet for myself. My husband is not into watches, but I am
, when I told him I was getting a new watch, all he said was..."Glad you're buying something for yourself, always taking care of everyone else, but yourself."
Again, CONGRATS!
