Suprise incoming.....

My girlfriend thought I needed a better watch case and gave me this today:




It's a little feminine but I guess it's a classic and I'm very happy.

Cheers

They actually make whatever you want. Anything is possible to special order if you are willing to pay

Was this ordered directly from LV? I think I have seen something similar on the Bulang And Sons Website.

I must say I like it aswell. It is not feminine. Now maybe if it had a shoulder strap then I can see your problem.

Thoughtful is the right word. She doesn't understand my "obsession" but she supports me and doesn't mind running around Rome hunting for a new watch ;-)

Thanks man

No feminine at all, those are incredible cases. I have been lusting over one for years but I am too cheap to pull the trigger. If my wife purchased me one, I would be over the moon.

I am not a big fan of the monogram patterns, but it looks nice on that box. Good luck with it.

On a side note there is a black version that I got outbid on twice. The current line up only has the roll. The boxes were from a few years ago and hard to find in black.
