Birthday present to self. This is my first major watch purchase in 11 years. I am STOKED!

What makes it super cool is having you guys to share it with. I'm stuck at work until 5 am and can barely focus. Lol!

Congrats! in advance. Is this a milestone birthday gift or just an "I made it birthday gift"? Either way, I hope you enjoy and wear it in good health.

Milestone for sure. Bounce back after 4 years of challenging life experiences. Wasn't myself. I said by this birthday I would be back on track. It's a wrap
