Incoming...

Another Tudor. I know most of you won't like this one, but hey, I do! Had to order a bigger watch box yesterday in anticipation. Will be here tomorrow (the watch, that is). Pics of the actual watch to follow. I think if I don't like the white strap, I can always dye it another color, like black!

Thanks all! G, I just ordered a Fossil 10 watch leather box. Looks very nice, and at $95, not a bad deal. Of course I will post pics when I get it and "load it up"!

Sweet watch. Love the uniqueness of the white, not sure about the band; however, it may look different with the contrast on the wrist. I wonder how long it will stay white. I assume the top of the line ETA 2892-2 movement?

I thought you said something about chill'in for a while after the last watch!

Wear it at work?

2th Dr - do you really wear a watch while at work? I would think that you would risk messing up the watch pretty bad as a dentist. I guess if you wore rubber glove OVER the watch it wouldn't get anything on it, but seems to me like I wouldn't want to wear anything but a cheap timex while doing any kind of dental work.

My girlfriend is a dental student. She has to wear a watch to time her procedures. She wears a $20 digital workout watch with a rubber bracelet to easily clean all the wax, ceramic, clay, and who knows whatever else off of it.

Thanks for the comments everyone! It will arrive today, but not at work, so I'll have to wait until I get home.
Vincent, Yes I do wear my watches to work, but we have to wear PPE (personal protective equipment) that includes long sleeve coats, so with the sleeve and a glove, the watch is completely covered during procedures. Your girlfriend is required to wear PPE also, but maybe when she's doing lab work it is an issue.
