Thinking about it I don't think the AD experience was worth £1000 as the piece itself was only a few months old. A year will pass by in no time, looking forward to updating this thread with pics next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

In a little bit similar situation, my wife went to buy my first Rolex for my birthday but I'll have to wait until the end of January to open my pressie. Knowing that it's here, in the house and in its box is so frustrating! And the more time I spend on this forum, the more I'm dying to be end of Jan! Arrrrrgh!

Gorgeous. My wife is turning 40 next year as well. Green is also her favourite colour. This is the exact watch I will be looking for for her.
In fact, it is the only watch that has actually excited her and she said she would wear everyday. Slowly I am converting her... |

Congrats to the Misses. It's a great looking watch, and she's already given it the stamp of approval. Why wait to give it to her? I found myself in a similar situation with my wife and our anniversary, and I could only hold out for 2 months. I surprised her with the watch and let her know we'll focus on our time together celebrating rather than gifts this year.
Besides, usually when people buy gifts early, they end up spending more and getting more than they planned. |

I'm actually looking at purchasing the same watch, but in blue dial, for my wife. It is a great value for the money and the 34mm size is perfect. Excellent purchase!

I’m new to this forum and this was a great post. I got to read the beginning and I thought no way will he actually last waiting a year! Than when I saw a year later you posted it was wrapped up I couldn’t help but laugh! That is awesome! She’s going to love the gift! Possibly even more once she finds out you had it hiding a year. Me on the other hand, I buy my girlfriend gifts a month prior to her birthday and I always end up giving them to her prior. I’m not a patient person lol!

Found a deal on a DJ for my wife as a tenth anniversary gift and I gave it to her 8 months early. Now THAT was a surprise and the best ever. What ever reason you got it, giving it to her earlier will truly be an even bigger surprise. Just my two cents!
