After a lot of time spent researching, visiting ADs, an Omega Boutique and even David SW's store in Orlando while on vacation, I settled upon a new no date Sub.

Before we get to the end, I want to say that I had fantastic experiences at all the places I visited. The Omega Boutique could not have been more helpful or genuine. David has an amazing store in Orlando. I was able to talk to the man himself for 20 or so minutes and will definitely do business with him in the future!

I decided I really valued the service I received from Orr's Jewelers in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh. I went in today prepared to buy and was honestly blown away by how they took care of me. So, without blabbing anymore, here are the pics!
Perfect. You got the right one for you, and you went to the right people for you.

Don't flip, don't look for the next one, just enjoy a classic. You may pass it on to your first offspring, but it's a keeper now, so don't look onto the next one until you can't stop smiling at that one.

Marsala is great at that Squirrel Hill Orrs.

If you haven't been to the one in Sewickley, go. It's even better. IMO.

Marcella is actually who took care of me. She's the best! I can't say enough nice things about her.

Maybe I'll go and browse the Sewickley store for some fun!
