Alfred, is that an Oyster Perpetual 116000 with black dial and WHITE (not pink) hour markers??? If so, pls post close ups! Those are fairly rare!

So far I am allowed to have my watches to myself, but my daughters (especially my youngest is really wanting one of mine, especially the black dials... :-)

Best,

A

Behind every watch-wearing Man is a confiscating WOMAN ;)

Also works the other way for our fellow forumers of the fairer sex.

I managed to "lose" an explorer 2, before I even had a chance to try it on.

This is an all too familiar scenario! I say it's a small price to pay for what our ladies have to deal with! Boy do I miss my GV!

It happens.
Fortunately for me my wife prefers very small watches.
Unfortunately for me she prefers them in precious metals with diamonds.
