Incoming Birthday Presents:-)

I got the white Milgauss earlier in the month and in the last 2 weeks it has not left my wrist. I got a really good deal so grabbed it ahead of my birthday and my wife let me wear it:-)
Love the watch as it is very stealth, no one at work has clocked it's a rolex.



Children dressing it up with lego,


The TT DJII was a complete surprise as the wife and children have been saving it for it behind my back a complete shock, but a very welcome one:-)

The two together, I am not allowed to wear the TT till my birthday, so I have to wait to desticker;-)

Happy birthday, Simon! Those are very nice presents indeed.

The Milgauss and Italian rubber make for a comfortable combo.

Thank you Dan, been away for a while but good to be back, I got the idea of the Italian from the forum. I love the heft of the watch it is a heavy watch.

Very nice! I would have to agree and love the way the Milgauss has a stealth factor about. Been looking at this and a smooth bezel DJII for a similar reason.

That's a very nice pre-birthday present. Now what about birthday and post-birthday presents?
