Yeah, I can say with confidence it's not going anywhere anytime soon. Nice part of my journey through as much as I have watch wise, I'm settling down to a more focused collection of what I really like. Funny enough, it's turning out to be the more simple things like the 5711 over a 5726 or 5167 vs 5164.

It's Perfect!

And judging by your response to your wife...it's a conversation you've had before - Well played

My guess is you caught yourself staring at the 5711 a few times during the Flyers game!

Enjoy it!

Actually no, I had the Sea Dweller on for the Flyers game...Flyers and Eagles have yet to lose a game I am at with the SD on the wrist...so wasn't much choice there...its a good luck charm!

As for the convo with my wife...well, lets just say we moved into a nicer house we never expected and a large chunk of it was funded by liquidating watches. Helped her see reality - I won't kill savings for this madness, but I enjoy it and am willing to "sacrifice" if other "life needs" are to be addressed. Just helps if there is a potential built in gain right off the bat

Ha! That's the best...anything to extend a winning streak - Wayne Simmonds my sons favorite player...total beast

And all that can be said on the back story with the wife convo - very well played my friend.

Your 5711 is beautiful!

Congrats. I noticed you also had a 5726A. So did I. It surprised me how different the cases were between my 5711 and 5726.
