Saw a D-series today...

Hi guys,

Today being Saturday and my new Omega bracelet being just a wee bit on the tight side, I went over to Mansor's with my spare links for some adjustment. He took off the ½ link and threw in a full link for a much better fit. Remember, Omega bracelets are not easy to resize yourself unlike the Rolex ones. Pretty tricky stuff and best done by a jeweller.

Meanwhile, a very attractive TT YM with a metallic blue dial caught my eye. I asked him to show it to me and saw on the hang-tag D-0029xx. Wow, I looked up at David and remarked that this watch is like hot out of the oven. He told me he received it only a couple of days ago. Needless to say that he had to mop up the entire counter after I'd finished drooling all over the place.

Cheers - JJ

You sure it wasn't due to and not the drooling just knowing what Zemina would do to you if you even mentioned it to her
