I was very excited coming home from work today knowing these two beauties were waiting for me! Thanks to DavidSW.

Problem is, the deal I made with my wife to get them was based on me meeting a specific life event, hopefully in the next three months. I broke that promise to take quick phone photos but they are now back in the box under care of "the boss".

They are not forever keepers or grails per se, but pieces I always liked the look of and am lucky enough to be able to own for a while at least. Hopefully I get to wear them properly later in the year...

Thanks guys. I can probably convince her to let me see them occasionally but I think the wait will make me enjoy them all the more!
