Wife's B-day.. got her a GMT II Red/Blk

Pics to come.... just got the wife a 2002 GMT II Red/Blk for her 30th b-day :)

I think she'll be pleasantly surprised :)

HOUSE-RULE - as long I get her something I can get myself something :) It's in our contract :)

The thought has crossed my mind.... BUT her wrist is soooo tiny.... and I'm tooo lazy to change the links in and back out......... I'd be soooooo busted.

Reminds me of the guy who bought his wife a motorcycle for their anniversary ;)

Sounds like you & your wife have the same contract as we have in our household. Except, usually I am going first on the purchase, she is right behind..
So, I show her the PAM25 on the net last night , ask her opinion, instead of an answer I get " How much?" And I see her eyes light up
All in fun. So whenever I price my watches, I have to consider the exchange rate at 2 times the price.
BUT, on my last PAM, she simply inherited my Tudor Blue Mini-Sub. Looks good on her & she's happy

Women with Mens' rollies

It's funny the attention/comments she get's while wearing her SS Sub Date..... men ask if it's her boyfriends..... and women ask WHY she's wearing a Man's watch :).....

I think it suits her nicely :)

She's got a lady SS/WG Datejust for elegant evenings, a SS Sub Date for everyday, and now she'll have a nice GMT II for travel since she'll be doing alot of travel in her new job ;)

Now I need to figure out a way to hide my purchase of a YG Sub..... :) I may have to void the contract on that one.
