Thanks. I don't know what kind of wood it is -- it didn't say. I would guess Cherry.

yeah, I just love opening it, even if I don't intend to change my watch! In fact, I find myself opening it about 5-8 times per day.

It looks gorgeous, I hope you enjoy it!
I obtained something along the same lines during this wonderful holiday of ours.

Really????? Why is that? Check my avatar, dude! Love my Omegas, but finally got my Sub, which I have always wanted. At first, it underwhelmed me (sorry), but now, it gets the most wrist time! The Sub and my Speedy Pro are the ones that would be keepers, but why have only two watches????

She bought it at Bombay Company -- a chain furniture/knick knack store in Vancouver, though I suspect it is Canada-wide.
