Latest acquisition

I've been thinking about one of these since they got released. Nearly pulled the trigger twice previously but just felt it was a bit big. Finally woke up to my madness and bought one - so glad I did! What a beauty



Have a good weekend everybody!

Agree...I too had reservations, not so much the size but the thickness. But it is a wonderful addition to the collection. Congrats!

Looks really nice! Almost all my shirts are blue so I like how the stitching makes this one fun and different. Sounds like they are hard to come by, but I may have to try to pick one up. Thanks for posting!

Oh, and great watch too! Congratulations!
