Nice color/fit on you Ken

When you pick up the Rose one this week, tell them to call you when the 5167a comes in

Love the 5167r ken! I tried it on before acquiring my 5167a and loved it but was aiming for a completely below the radar piece, thus SS made more sense.

Hope to see that beauty on your wrist again soon.

Thanks guys...We shall see. It is between this and another watch. Of course both can end up in the collection at some point but one for now.

I imagine it is hard to find wrist time given your other piece! Congrats again on both! Solid combo!
