Incoming 116900, and note of thanks to those who helped pick it.

I posted a thread recently asking what would be a good gift for someone who is turning 27 and not really into watches. A lot of you helped me pick this one. Also, a lot of people posted that if he is not into watches, then why give such an expensive present. Well, I believe every man has to have a good watch for any occasion, formal or informal, and what a better way to introduce someone to the watch world than us. Maybe this watch will trigger his interest and he will sprout to love witches like we do, not everyone became watch collectors in their late teens or early twenties. If not, then its still a really good present to show gratitude.

Thanks a lot who helped to pick this piece.

Our love for witches runs deep.

Watches, too.

Congrats! What you said is true! I became a watch collector very late in my working career and enjoyed every moment of it. I expect most of our kids will follow that passion of ours. Start then early!

Excellent pick! You are right, you could have sparked a future watch collector/lover/addict like the rest of us.
