Looks great on your wrist... (Have I said that before?)

I completely understand you. When you get to love a watch, you wish to use it for a long time.
When I bought my Explorer last September, I kept on my wrist through two months straight!
Then same happened with my Daytona last January: a month and a half straight except some little rest some week end.

I like to change once a week, so other favorites donīt get jelous!
Anyway my present Bond Sub will get some long wrist time I guess!

Enjoy your beautiful collection in good health Karis!!
Best cordial regards, Abel
