Incoming for the better half

So it was time to replace the Omega Seamaster that the better half has had on her wrist for over 12 years now. And she’s not into watches at all.

Somehow managed to convince her to pop into the AD this afternoon to check out their stock of available watches and after trying out a bunch of Rollie two tone DJs and steel OPs, she spotted the Cartier Ballon Blue. Tried it on and promptly said “I love this!”. As they say, the rest is history.

So now the Cartier is on the wrist while the Omega has been sent to the spa after 12 years 🫣

Congratulations to you and your wife. You’re lucky that your wife likes a watch once every 12 years. I got wife into watches and now every watch I buy costs me 2x :D
