My Gift to myself!
Well I went in for my Army Medical today. The typical stuff: Bone structure, sight, hearing,.etc. Well my vision is now 20-30 (which is fairly bad), and I am half deaf (I can't hear high-pitched noises), which is probably due to Summer Training last summer in which I went temporarily deaf.
Luckily, I barely passed my medical, and I'm therefor allowed to stay in the Army.

I decided to celebrate! So I went to the nearest dealer and bought myself a brand new Sarelle for $300.00. This thing is beatiful. It's an Quartz with a Chronograph and Tachymeter. It's very sleak and sporty lookin'. I like the style of the numbers, it looks great!

Well here's a few pics I took. I took 11, but here's two of 'em.

Side 1:http://members.shaw.ca/BergD/Side1.JPG

Hand1: http://members.shaw.ca/BergD/Hand1.JPG

It's nothin amazing, just something to keep me occupied until November when I buy my Tudor.

Enjoy the pics, I certainly am!

Unless they were referring to JJ. Then they would have to replace the Y with a W

I like it blown up like that - better detail.

Padi edit have resized your pictures to just 640X420 with very little loss of detail.Even if you post a link, huge pictures still take time to load.The forum guideline is around 700X700 that is much more forum friendly, some of our members are still
on dial ups.Thank you for your cooperation,nice looking watch by the way.
Please read guide below.

He's just jealous, Darren. He thinks your pictures will give his teeth competition as the only man mad object on earth aside from the Great Wall of China that can be seen from space
