Pepsi has landed at my AD :)

Finally after 2 years of waiting my AD came through.

Owned the aluminum bezel version 15 years ago and sold it because it just lacked presence. This ceramic version has significantly more wrist presence and the jubilee bracelet is sublime. Have a feeling this will be getting lots of wrist time this summer.

You must’ve told your AD that red/burgundy and blue/purple were your grandmothers’ favorite colors. Congrats.
