My First!

I have been collecting watches now for a couple of years. I have mainly been attracted to brands like Bremont and Ball. I've been searching for a new timepiece and was roaming the mall the other day and came across the DateJust II Blue face and Fluted bezel...had to have it. I ordered from a trusted seller here. Service was prompt and courteous.

Without further hesitation...

Congrats! That piece is beautiful. I'm not a fluted bezel type of guy but if I were to get one that'd be it. Wear it in good health!

CWIN - I debated, but decided I needed a little "bling" in my life :)
