Back Home (from a long weekend) with my new baby.

Good evening all.
Well, I've just gotten back (last night actually) from a long weekend trip with the wife. As odd as it may seem, the tropical location that we visited actually had a variety of establishments that sold jewery and yes, even watches .

One particular location caught my eye. In reality, the particular AD I visited was the primary (did I say sole) reason I went, but don't tell my wife.

I only wish I had the camera equipment and photographic skills that many of the members here have so I could take some good close ups of the transparant case back. The movement and the finish on these watches are as much fun to look at as the front.
