I recall seeing a "President's Club" thread somewhere... I'll have to check it out.

Awesome first Rolex. Congratulations and wear it in good health. The story is more important than the date you got it.

Good point!

On a pleasant note, my wife has really started admiring the Daytona with the slate dial... I began putting the idea in her head when I overdid her steak on the barbeque and said that if only I had a Superlative Chronograph to help time my grilling, such incidents would be avoided.

I might be four well-done tenderloins away from a "let's see that SS Daytona again..." from her. Fingers crossed!

Congratulations! It is very sweet to commemorate such an accomplishment with a Rolex.

You have also set a very high bar for your wife, for future anniversaries!

Oh geez, that's true...

Well, we're still building our family! Maybe our second born will distract her enough to lower the bar!

Seriously though, this TRF group needs to be more of a support group. I just got the President and I'm already looking forward to a Sport model (YM in Platty anyone? TT Bluesy? Maybe a SS Daytona?). I need help!

Of course my wife is watching over my shoulder and agrees wholeheartedly that I need help - but for other additional reasons, I'm sure. I'm getting abuse as I type!

Help!
