Not for me...but for my wife. After delivering twins a couple of months ago I wanted to get her the watch she's always wanted: Rolex Day Date President! I met up with Jacek today in San Francisco and ended up with this beauty for her:

I'd never heard of the Tridor but once I saw it I knew it was the watch for her.

This is one of the nicest Rolex references I've ever seen! The Tridor is really a masterpiece, you chose well!

Many congratulations to your wife and to both of you for the twins!
