Hi everyone.

Just thought I would share my latest acquisition with you all

.

It's been a fairly frantic 2011 so far and I think this is number 16....ish

Not all Rolexes i would add ... or as expensive as this

But I am now firmly removing my trigger finger from my watch buying gun.... atleast for a while

This little beauty came courtesy of DavidSW and I must say what an absolute pleasure it has been to do business with him

. As many will already know, David is extremely professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Mine was a BNIB with all papers stamped from an AD dated August 2011. The watch still has all the little stickers all over it which I will have fun tonight removing. The last few photos were taken by David but its the same watch

and he takes better photos than me

In terms of the watch, this is where I do have a slight issue..... If I had bought an LV Sub, I would have a Hulk. If I had a SS blue bezel Sub I would have a Shark. But getting a WG heavy beast of a thing..... all I get is a SMURPH

Come on guys and gals, we need to think of a cooler name...pleeeeaaaasssee.

Hey everyone.

Thanks ever so much for all your kind words. Being able to share with people that actually understand this "addiction" we all have is amazing and a real outlet

. It probably encourages me to buy more watches but hey.... I'd only waste it otherwise

My other half will no doubt just shrug her shoulders and say "Oh not another one !!!"

And I definitely like BLUE ANGEL

Well done!

And yes Dino, if I can make it to the London GTG, so will my rather weighty Blue Angel

That's exactly the same expression I had when I first saw a Blue Angel in the "flesh" so to speak when I was over in the South of France a few weeks back

.

Off to Espana on Saturday for a week so will give her some pool and beach time

Although the weight of it may be a problem.... lots of swimming round in circles

May need to use an inflatable arm band for my left arm
