New Watch for my Wife

Went to the AD to look at a JLC Tribute to Deep Sea and left with this...My wife instantly fell in love with it. How could I say no?



It is a nice compliment to her Panerai

Wow, that's beautiful! Congrats to her

I have the same but with fluted bezel. I see she's a white dial fan like me! Cool!

I thought he was fishing for a trade. Not having met his wife, the best I'd be prepared to offer would be a used watch for his wife.

The JLC Tribute was very nice, but not as nice as the Rolex on my wife!
