The Gifts are Leather Watch trays (large for home and small for travel) so your watch has a nice place to lay when not on the wrist.

So what did you do for your sister for giving up that slot? Did you have to surrender the schwag bag?

Sorry for the brain freeze, but what is a WIS?

Now that would have been a great evening, getting to go WIS with the guys from Rolex!

The gold guy certainly (at least half) enjoyed it too!

A woman bought one of the Daytona's (and a Submariner) for her younger B/F, who was wearing a Breitling Chronomat, while on the boat....I will never forget her telling me "Yeah he's also getting that Black Submarine watch over there..." When I commented on what a nice gift the Daytona was....

Yeahhh.... A bit "out there" is one way to describe Goldie there! Perhaps we can assume the ladies attending the event were quite the foxy set??
