She's back...for a moment

Guys

I put my LV in the safe for a while as my 8 month old son has taken a liking to it and also seems to take great pleasure in bashing his wooden toys against the crystal.

Last night he went to his grandparents to stay whilst we took my niece to Newmarket to watch some horseracing and a concert.

Seeing the opportunity I put the LV on and what a feeling!!!!!!!!!!

After a month of wearing a quartz POS to work and at home, my beloved LV just oozed quality.

The weight and general heft of it, I can't believe how good it feels to wear this watch.

Unfortunately, my son is home and already he's tried to tear it off my wrist.

Back in the safe she goes...I will miss the old girl!

One word for you Jim, INSURANCE.

Wear that bad boy!

Or get the second Rolex you want to give to him, wear that one, and when it's all trashed just tell him why when you eventually bequeath it!

David, it's insured man...it's more his attitude than the watch damage really. We scold him off for bashing it and he screams the damn house down.

The boy is just like his father....he's gonna be Rolex crazy!!!!!!!!!!

You got to let them out every once in a while to breath. Sounds like a great night out.
