New Day Date
Well last month it was a 1655 and now I just picked up this 18038. When I saw the dial I had to have it. Pics in the box were taken by the seller but my wrist shot sucks so I had to add them. My next purchase needs to be a decent camera. LOL! (I DO REALIZE THE BOX IS FAKE) After seeing how Sam unveils a watch I can't even make an attempt because it would be an insult to him.
***For those who think 36mm is too small I respect your opinion, but strongly disagree*** (I do have girly wrists so maybe I'm in the minority) HAGWE, Mike G |

Bloody lovely ...and know what you mean about the dark dial, plus the strap sets off the whole package perfectly. Congrats

Your avatar is awesome as well! I could not trust Kingsley with my watches. When I first got him from the breeder 2 years ago this is how he acted around my Panerai. Needless to say, I now have a Ceramic (Scratch Resistant) Radiomir. LOL!
