WOW! Very nice, but I would have had a really hard time waiting to give it to her. Truth be told I couldn't have done it myself! Congratz to you both!

That's called will power!

I would probably have worn the watch myself during the time.... Or at least taken it out of the safe to stare at longingly and then get caught mid way through.

Happy anniversary.

I laud but can not identify with your patience. Don't know how you didn't even take it out for a test drive. Congrats. Funny enough, I got my wife a hulk and I wear the bluesy. Had links taken out when I bought it so I never even got to try it on. It looks great on her. I dig her collection. Well done.

Hope you both enjoy your anniversary to the fullest. It's so cool that you are both Rolex enthusiasts!

Regards, -rick.
Thanks! She has quite a collection herself... thanks to me for the most part .

I figured it would only be more expensive later on so better to prepare ahead of time!

I love it too! She definitely likes to wear the larger sized watches.

But yours has more bling . I actually contemplated getting her the one with the diamond on the hour indices but couldn't justify the price premium for 10 tiny diamonds .

We actually thought of getting the TT Smurf as our wedding watch but ended up getting something else... but since then we both have been a fan of the watch. I wish I had one too now :bang head:.
