More ice please...
I was very excited to learn that my new Sea Dweller had arrived at the AD and so my wife and I hurried on down to pick it up. As the sales agent took the watch out of the box and slipped it over my wrist, I slighly overheard the owner ask my wife if she wanted to slip something on but I was really focused on my new Sea Dweller! Cool watch!! Very comfortable.
  Once I came back to Earth, I looked over at my wife and noticed a glazed look in her eyes and then I saw the object of her gaze upon her wrist. When she asked, "What do you think dear?", I knew it was all over except writing the check.   ]Yes, all the way around!  We have much to be thankful for this year!   "Give thanks to the Lord for He is good." Psalm 136:1 Have a great Thanksgiving! |

Couple of nice watches there, nice that you both found something nice. I like those special edition bands, wish they would trickle down to some other models.

Very Cool
My wife was looking at that exact same watch, albeit without the diamond band. I may get off easy. |
