Well! My AD called out of the blue

I wasn’t looking for a new watch, but when I went in he had sd43 and CHNR. Wife said pick one, this is your 50th birthday gift. So here it is...

Congrats and Happy Birthday!

The CHNR looks stunning! I saw one in the wild the other day and couldn’t believe how subtle and stunning it looked.

Tough choice as both watches are amazing - but also very different.
I think the CHNR is a better fit to YOUR current collection as you have already 2 divers.

This being said.... CONGRATS!! Wear it in good health :)
