Incoming - unexpected
AD called yesterday asking if I’m interested in a new GMT. It was a hard call since I already have Batman and new WG 2018. Long story short here is the watch
And again, the Yacht-Master 2 tone rose gold is a beauty. Even through two tone is not a favorite of mine, but that watch look really sweet. It might be the next one depending on Basel 19 news

Is this a watch you wanted or bought because you had the call?

It wasn’t on my mind, I currently have the watch I really wanted this year “BLNR”. Will see if Basel 19 will bring any new goodies.
I asked my AD for any simple steel watch for a daily use. In order of preference Sub was first, the GMT all black second. He asked me if I want to put a deposit on any one and I said no deposit but whatever come first. He came through with a GMT.
This one will certainly get a lot of use.

Thanks all, planning the same. Time to put the BLNR to rest for a bit. I feel this one will become the daily watch.

I have no idea what watch you bought, what watch you want this year or next year, or what watch you will be buying before or after Basel 19.

I would advise letting all of your incoming calls go to voice mail.
