Yippeee! Three times a charm!

Hello everyone!
I just picked up my newest watch today from my local AD. I am totally happy with it.. just lovely!
I have two other watches.. one in yellow gold and one in white gold. They are fancy (which is my thing) but I also like that the new one is very sporty with no bling in sight. It's a 31mm midsize which I feel is just the right size for my wrist.
Thanks for sharing the smiles!!!

Hi again!
I do love this forum.. everyone is so nice.
Thank you all for your good wishes and kind words.
I love the simplicity of the face too. I was considering the two tone floral dial in a 36mm size but decided that classic was the way to go.
A wonderful evening to all!

The floral dial is beautiful, I really like it myself but given your collection I'd say you made the right choice.

Yes.. I love the floral face too! . I do think the roman face is a nice contrast to the other two watches though. Those were my thoughts exactly.
