Never thought I'd spend the money but...

Hey guys....can't believe it. I bought my girlfriend a watch for Christmas and made the fatal mistake of trying on a PO submariner while waiting for hers to be wrapped. Of course, I didn't buy it...it just cost too much. But the seed was planted and one thing led to another.

Got a great deal on this new 50th Anniversary Submariner LV...love it!!

Is it normal for me to look at every night before I turn off the lights??
