Congrats and wear it in good health! Great choice on the Polar! That and a SubC would be a killer combo.

you get my point, whereas the voice on my left shoulder is constantly trying to argue the point of the watch. I think the watch argument is definitely winning although there is a small amount of guilt still lingering around.
I currently have a Daytona originaly bought in 1994 that is worth today twice what has been paid for it originaly. I'm not saying the voice on your left is wrong, I'm just highlighting that you will end up with a relatively liquid asset which you can later sell if you need cash.

My other watch is a Black Explorer 2 42mm, which I bought earlier this week. I love it and can't get it off my wrist, I really think this one is a keeper (said that before a lot though).

Black or white? I think both are gorgeous in their own way but I opted with the black because my other watch is white. You can't go wrong either way, I say do it. You've earned it!

Mine is black, but have considered buying the white also. It is a great watch.
