This forum is a bad, bad place

[SG56]

Just a bunch of enables, arm-twisters, and crazy folks.

So, I got the watch that i fell in love with. No doubts about it. I am in love and I smile each time i look at my wrist.

I mentioned in my intro post that my dad always wanted a Sea Dweller or a Sub.

I mean, WHO DOESN'T, right?

I've always wanted one too, but it was out of the question for two reasons:
1. Never wanted anyone to think i'm wearing my dad's/boyfriend's/husband's watch
2. Waaaaaay to big for my wrist, right?

So i thought.

In my recent quest, I even went to try on a Breitling Superocean II 36, but dismissed it right away as "too boyish," hard to explain, nice watch, but that really looked like i took my dad's watch for a spin.

One of you mean enables recently posted a picture of gf/wife wearing a Sub and it looked amazing. I really tried hard NOT to look for that post again, but it was enough to put a bug in my head.
I even asked this morning someone to post a picture, same situation, better half hogging the sub

I mean, who doesn't want a Sub?

My husband might divorce me if i come home with one, so i'll have to plan this well. Christmas is just around the corner. Might have to say no to that FX Nikon... Sigh.

Anyhow, because you mean enablers don't stop posting gorgeous photos of your timepieces, I totally felt the pressure to try the sub/sd myself today, great time to spend a lunch on an office day. I went to Howard Frum that was recommended here a few days ago. Food is overrated anyway.

Did i mention, bad folks here? Bad bad!!!

So, I tried a Sub and a 40mm Sea Dweller.
My heart rate increased by a bit
I'm not at the 'which one' decision yet. Like i said, i'll have to plan this.

What i really need to hear from you is "it looks horrible, it looks like you took your husband's watch, it's too big for you, that watch makes your butt looks huge" and all that kind of stuff. I won't be offended, promised.

The kind Travis offered to take some pictures. Here they are.

Please don't disappoint me. I need my sleep at night

Thank you for your help!
