Susan's Husband is updating everybody on his gift(s)!
Hello!
I'm Susan's husband - the Susan that posted here a month ago about a birthday gift. I read her old posts and want to thank everybody for the suggestions! Thank you! She took me to my buddy's place today and I picked out the gift! I guess she couldn't keep the secret anymore and decided to let me pick out what I really like ... Had a GREAT time looking at all the masterpieces! This is what I picked out... Picture 487.jpg Well... that's only part of the story... My buddy told us (secretly) he got something yesterday that we have to see... We both told him separately we love that watch... So... the next thing we know... We left with another piece... the one and the ONLY... Picture 490.jpg Here is the group picture! Picture 503.jpg Best Birthday Gift EVER! Nice watches, but the photographer sucked! At least we got some hairy arm shots! Will try to take better pictures later! Proud Owner of the TT Bluesy and Green Milgauss |

Not the new model yet, although the display model did not have the ROLEX and serial number on the inside of the bezel, under the crystal the one that I got out of the box did have these upgrades.
Loving them right now. Had to show my parents yesterday(not to mention I wanted to get them out and see them again), they loved them although I don't think they understand the passion as much as I do. Certain generations do not understand spending that kind of money on a timepiece. |

My wife bought me an Omega SMP for my B-day in 04 and I almost fainted
If she had bought me a Rolex it would be to much strain and I would have cardiac arrest You are very lucky |
