Santa did NOT bring me a Rolex !!!
I don't know whose house he thought he was coming to..
I don't know what to do......he stopped by and left this mechanical wind up watch... Here's a couple of quick snaps....Should I keep it...??? I'll be wearing it around for the rest of the day....you know.....just to break it in a bit...

Whoever got you this watch thought of it carefully and obviously wants you to be happy. Enjoy it and it will pair nicely with a Rolex!
Besides, it's the 50th anniversary Omega. Perhaps you should get an LV to match! MERRY CHRISTMAS |

Gorgeous watch I really like those but do not have one yet.
A few weeks ago I bought my Christmas present, a new GMT-IIc. Then I passed down my 1yr old mint SS Dj TOG to my wife for Christmas. She appreciates it just like it was NIB. Maybe I can sell my GMT-II circa 1996 and get one of those Speedmasters...

Hmmm... I dunno, I would be pretty pissed if Santa brought me that instead of a Rolex!
If I was you I would box it up, and send it to me! Great watch! Enjoy it

I dearly love my Rolex, but you can NEVER go wrong with a classic like the Speedmaster. The anniversary edition is a beauty, and definitely a keeper!
Congrats, and wear it in good health. |
