Hello Janet ! Glad to hear from you ! I am at the moment walking the Portuguese Way of Saint James (Santiago) and started my journey from Lisbon on Tuesday. I wish you a wonderful weekend. Sophie.

just tuned in to this thread. Haven't been here in a while and it's good to see all the old members who are popping up and some new members chiming in.

My final watch purchase :) And, my daughter who never wears a watch LIKES this one. The artist in her appreciates the dial.

You too Sophie! It’s called the Aquis Upcycle since the dial is made from PET plastic recycled from the Ocean. Hence, no 2 dials will be the same. Fun!

Current State of the Collection (SOTC).
I REALLY need to unsubscribe from Watch YT channels & limit my time on TRF - Haha!
Am very happy & content w/these!! If I were to move one out, it would be the Seiko Mod. that is an homage to the “Root Beer”. I lied previously when I said , “this is my last watch.” I’m hopelessly addicted. I have been for years. :)

I’m so pleased to say my daughter (only child) will accompany me to the AD this Monday to finalize the engraving designs on her “someday” OP 36. While she appreciates the Oris dial more, she knows I purchased the OP w/ funds received following my Mom’s passing. My SA is genuinely pleased to finally meet my daughter since we’ve shared our passions for our children & watches over the last 5 years. My daughter, like her son, is on the ASD spectrum w/Asperger’s. To say my daughter has matured immensely in to quite an amazing young woman would be an understatement! I am truly blessed…

She & I wanted a saying that was unique to our relationship. So…we read through old hand written cards I’ve given her to convey my feelings (and to reflect on her immense progression through the years). We are so pleased with what we came up with…. It’s something I always wrote in my cards to her!! It is fitting, as it also plays “full circle” re: Mom/Daughter relationship(s). The engraving will simply state: I am truly blessed

It warms this WIS’ heart to know she will have a special heirloom from me. And, she is psyched about this too! We are then going to share lunch together after the AD visit.

If you read this far, thank you my TRF friend. Wishing you a special day to share w/someone meaningful in your life. Be well…

Wishing you all a Happy & Healthy 2022. So, I’m a day late…and a dollar short, as I just purchased another watch. Thankfully it’s only $100. this time, but now I’m up to 7. Yikes!!! Gotta stop; it’s gotta stop. LOL
