Thank you all.

It's truly amazing that she did this for me.
She was afraid that she was going be turned down from the AD. But they were moved by her dedication to just stop in to check with the SA. Even SA said he was surprised to see her back.

It really is a great watch. I can barely tell it’s there. I did the same thing two years ago. What a great feeling. It’s still hard for me to take it off.

Long story short, wife texted him to get in touch with her (with out telling me) if one becomes available and my SA did and my wife surprised me last night.

Thanks to my wife, now I have my first brand new Rolex with my name and birthday written on the card.

I always said relationship with AD is BS but a kind action like this from a SA, I am eating my own words today.
