Wifes birthday

My wife is 40 today and i've bought her a diamond eternity ring.
We chose it earlier in the week. I'm picking it up today.
While we were there the manager admired my Explorer II.

Not being one to miss a chance to impress i'm going tho wear my Oyster Date when i pick it up!!

It's funny really. If i could change one thing about the Date it would be the bezel to a round one!!

The bezel gives the watch character!

Nah, i won't change as i do like it, just not as much as the smooth.
I also LOVE the blue dial and stick batons.

She doesn't wear a watch. I've bought her about 5 in the past and they're all in her drawer!!
Mind you, there's not a rolex among them.

Nice bezel. I mean the one on the watch dummy. Tell the young gal happy 40th. My wife was the same way with watches, until I bought her a Rolex. Go figure.
