OMG, wifey finally got a Rolex
This isn't about the new watch, but about the fact that my wife of 30 years finally got a Rolex. She has always been rather frugal, but today while at the local AD, she spotted a model that caught her fancy. A 179171 ladies date just in everose and steel.
I am so proud of her, as her career has really taken off the last few years and she certainly deserves it. Now I don't feel so guilty about the ones I've purchased. |

Thats great.
I have tried to convince my wife she should get one as well. However so far she has been reluctant, so I don't push her. |
