We are opening gifts after lunch. For our family it is usually a 4 hour affair so it will be awhile before I know for sure. I will report back when I know something.

Please make sure your family understands the priority of updating TRF vs spending time with them.

Well, we have finished opening gifts and I did not get the Sub C with the normal gift giving. However, that doesn't mean all hope is lost.

A little history. About 9 years ago, my father in law bought everyone in the family Rolexes for Christmas. This was before my wife and I got married. Him and I were talking about watches about a month and a half ago and he mentioned that he "owed" me a Rolex. I kinda told him what I liked to have and that is why I thought I may be getting one for Christmas. Now just because I didn't get one with the normal gift exchange doesn't mean that I still won't get it before we leave to go back home. He may still pull me aside later tonight or tomorrow.

Sooooo, stay tuned. It aint over yet.
