First image 178341 for my wife
Aloha members,
Well as you all know I have been searching for the perfect watch to give my lovely wife on our 20th wedding anniversary. This is first light shots of the 178341 watch, currently with DavidSW. I think she really is going to flip out when she sees this watch. I am excited to see her reaction when she opens the box to find this beauty staring her in the face. Ladies what do you think? Did I do well?  Aloha from Kauai. Tom Big mahalo  to our fellow forum member DavidSW for being so patient and working with me to find "The Watch" for our anniversary.

You hit a home run with this one. The Two-Tone Version, Jubilee Band, and Diamond Six really make this a special piece. Bought a similar version for my wife as a wedding gift. Consider this your get out of jail free card for the next few months LOL!

Mahalo guys! And Moms if they responded
Thanks for all the compliments. Pictures do no justice to the beauty of the watch! Saw on just like it at the AD and that was the one for my wife.
No stopping, no turning around that was the one. In person the watch just is incredible. Goog53 I like that "Get out of jail free cards, at least for a few months"! LOL Thanks guys. This forum is made up of such great people. I do not think there is one to compare on the Internet. We should all be blessed to be apart of this wonderful community. to the members! to the moderators!Aloha from Kauai. Tom |

Congrats on 20 years. Nothing like a timeless Rolex to symbolize TIME together for a fifth of a century!
