My Heaviest Incoming Ever - Totally Smitten

This has been a long journey from dream to reality, which has made today all the more sweeter.

I intended to write a long intro detailing a journey that Tolkien would have been proud of

But I will spare you all and let this beautiful watch do the talking.

I really am speechless:























I'm now going to put this bad boy on my wrist and head out the door. My first AP, who'd of thought

Badass. Congrats. I Don't understand why this beautiful AP does not have a solid rose bracelet instead of rubber but I am still new to the brand and need more time to appreciate methinks. Wear it strong.

Congrats! Do you find it wears a bit too big as others have previously complained about?
