Double Incoming......10 year Anniversary!!!

So my wife and I are celebrating our 10 year anniversary this year and in the past we have celebrated milestones like this with new watches - 30th/40th birthdays and our engagement for example. As it feels like a special anniversary to us we wanted to try to get a similar pair of watches to mark the occasion but did not want an identical 'his and hers' pair so to speak. We knew the watch my wife wanted as we have looked at it and she has tried it on in the past, so it was up to me to decide which one to partner it with. Fortunately Basel 2018 had the answer.

Having posted on Chadridv's thread yesterday that I couldn't wait to see the CHNR in person, I actually managed it yesterday afternoon. To my surprise it was available. Even better, they had the model my wife wanted in stock too. Needless to say we both now have our anniversary gifts. Well, not exactly now to be honest. We collect them both at the weekend when we can get them sized properly etc. Until then I managed to snap a couple of shots in the AD. The YM looks WAY better in the flesh than the picture I took as does the GMT. They both really are stunning! I will get some better shots up at the weekend.
