Unexpected Incoming
Went to an event at my AD today. Wasn't on my wishlist, but they asked me if I've ever seen it in person. I haven't seen IRL, so I asked to see it and they brought it out from the safe. As soon as it was on the wrist, you know it wasn't coming off. LOL! They let me walk out with it, so I'm a happy camper!

Beautiful! A big congrats! I got to try on both at my AD....with the Oyster and the Jubilee. Unfortunately, neither were allowed to leave the store that day. If they did, it would definitely be the Jubilee for me!

Yea, that’s how it’s done. The GMT Jubilee will spoil you on so many levels.

What was your sales pitch to get them agree to sell it to you? Awesome watch - well done!

LOL! No sales pitch. I asked if they had anything in the safe I might like. There was an event going on at the AD, so they pulled me over to a less crowded area and brought out the GRNR and VTNR. I really liked the GRNR and asked if I can buy it. As a matter of fact, I havent even paid for it yet. They asked me to pay by check and I didn't have my checkbook on me, who does? Lol. I need to drop off a check next week.
