Pepsi is nice but sometimes Root Beer hits the spot

My first two tone watch. I used to think two tone was for old guys but I'm becoming one....
Will eventually source a two tone jubilee bracelet hopefully because it deserves one I think?

I think it looks great, congrats.

I really bonded with this one, also my first 2-tone but I'm already an old fart .............
