A special watch and my 3000th post
So for my 3000th post, a very special event happened for me so I combined those together.
One day, I got the call, but not the call I was expecting. My AD, who I have had a long relationship with (almost 20 years) called me up and asked, what would go great with that white dialed Tudor chrono I just got from him. Being I had been waiting for a green beveled sub, I went to it first. No, what else A Seadweller 43? No. I couldn’t remember what else I have on my wish list and then He proceeded to say, What about this? I couldn’t believe it and said absolutely!!! Now he called me on his way to the beach, so it took a few days until he was back, he did say I could pick it up from one of the other associates, but I preferred to wait until he came back… Hopefully the pictures answer the question as to what it was!!! Thanks for reading! 1. Where I was 2. and 3. Everest because I didn’t want to wear it on the bracelet (it was the wrong color, but it’s what I had available) 4. Was waiting on the right color to come in. (It was late)

Congrats any particular reason you don’t want to wear the bracelet, makes for a much better look in my
Opinion. Enjoy! |

Simple, I scratch PCLs all the time, and as a comfort thing, it’s simply amazing on rubber.

That's def one way to celebrate 3k, congrats on the pick up!
So with this AD of yours, whom you obviously know well, you have multiple pieces on wish list that you explicitly expressed wanting? |
