Finally, PICS from my new B-day Present

Hi Everyone!

I am finally back in Berlin, over the jetlag, found my digital camera, got new batteries, and took about 50 REALLY bad picture over the last couple of days. I think I am the worst photographer ever, and truthfully, the camera is on it's last legs.
I have two pictures to post of my wrist, hand and beautiful watch. :-)
Sorry they are less than great, so many of you post such wonderful photos, but I just wanted you all to see my new beauty.
I get so many terrific compliments, everyone says how the watch is so stylish, elegant, understated and simply beautiful. YAY!

I was getting the bracelet adjusted and the AD showed me the midsize Yacht-Master, WOW! I thought, now how did I not see this beauty, I was so fixated on my 20 year dream of a Datejust, I just had blinders on. I am thrilled with my purchase, but I'm thinking, a few more concerts and you never know, that Yacht-Master is so sporty and chic, couldn't I one day have two Rolexes, why not? I think I'm in trouble, the bug has officially bitten me!

Best to you all!

Leigh

Hi All!
Thanks for all your kind well wishes!
Wow Richard, beautiful watch, and Bobby, great taste. :-)
Karis, I love your silver dial DJ, if I only had a bit more spare change!
Dan, that was all my husbands doing, I'll pass along your compliments, he'll like that.
Simon, I was looking at the blue dial as well, very beautiful.

Again, thank you all so much, I'm so glad I found this forum, great place to hang out!
Best,
Leigh

The watch matches everything really well, especially the rings! Is that a Bvlgari? My wife has one just like it...

I'm not a diamonds kind of guy, but I'll make an exception for that watch on your wrist. Looks great.

Thanks again everyone, and thanks for the compliments on my rings. :-) That's all my husbands doing, he was/ is extremely generous with me, and yes Lee, my wedding Ring is a Bulgari, my husband had it specially made out of platinum, and my engagement ring also, my SS DJ looks so good next to them.
I still just grin like a kid when I look at my wrist!

Leigh that watch does look stunning on your wrist. I'm not surprised at all you get a lot of compliments about it.

I'm sure you have many, many, many more concerts to sing, so that Yacht-Master might not be too far away at all
