Icon10 What a day! [Long]

So there I was out and about in town today, when I get the call!!!

My friendly AD telling me the Daytona is IN!

OH MY!!!

"Do you still want it Sir?"

"Yes Please!!!"

I paid there & then over the phone - it's being shipped.

A very happy man, I went on about my business with the family, doing the Xmas shopping.

I pop in to my alternate AD, (who had offered me a GV some time ago if I bought another watch). I had told him at the time that my "list" needs to be completed in order, and the list was Daytona, then GV, then anything else (in time of course)

I told him, guess what, I got the call on the Daytona!

He looked at me and said that's great news! We have a great relationship, but I had never actually bought anything from him.

He said "You've had a good week! How about we make it better. Want that GV that I've got in the safe?"

WHAT!!!!!!

**Immediate decision time**

...Hadn't planned for this!!! .... Normally have a 1 - 3 year gap between purchases ...Quick calculations on Watch purchase funds... It's gonna be tough, but I could get both... hadn't planned on it... but prices may be going up .... when will I get another one offered to me... would have to sacrifice other things... no other luxuries for YEARS!....gonna have to work EXTRA HARD...

LET'S DO IT!!!!!!!!!!

So in one glorious day - I get BOTH GRAIL WATCHES - I've been looking 6 years for Daytona and 1 year for GV!!!!!

WOW - guys great things can happen if you believe...

Needless to say pics to follow, and just like to say thanks to you all for being a great bunch of cool guys and gals - theres a fantastic community spirit here and I love reading all your posts!
