Bing- bong! Incoming! Everyone loves that sound!

Laying around waiting for the FedEx Guy. Every car door slam I’m up and looking outside. Then suddenly! Bing-bong!! The doorbell rings!

Got this. Opened it up, but wait the box got smaller!

Aaah. But it’s ok. Just boxed up better for protection.

Oh yea! Ta-da!!

You gotta take the stickers off with “reckless abandon” as my old football coach used to say.


Final pic. Unstickered, obligatory wrist shot after a quick cleaning with WristClean.


Thank you! Thank you! you all!

Every time I see one of those beautiful blue dialled op's, I just want one. One day, perhaps not this year, but one day I will have one on my wrist.
