None for me... Gold just doesn't look good on my wrist.

Cool watch Leo. BTW, my middle name is the same as your first.

The safest place for your watch is on your wrist.

It was my grandpa's first if that counts. He was a Silver Star recipient so I think it does :)

Oh no Patrick, I worked hard for it.

I didn't buy my first DD until I was 2 years old.



EDIT: Didn't want to say 10 years old. :)

Here is one photo I found online. The top one is doctored so I could see what a "MOP Myriad" Emerald Rolex might look like. The bottom one is the original "MOP Myriad" Ruby Rolex. I have been considering getting one or the other as a dial on a YG Presidential DD with a Fluted Bezel. Emerald is my birthstone, so I will likely go with that.

Never seen that dial configuration before.

I think it would look sweet with blue saphires and a fluted bezel.

They make a "MOP Myriad" Sapphire version, so it is an option. The MSRP is the same as the Ruby; both are cheaper than the Emerald version.

If he goes along with that then he's obviously not as smart as you said.
