My cat is spot on to a 116333 DJII

No joke! The proportions of color are just right. You've got the gray of the case and sunburst dial. A little tan for the 18kt yellow gold. Some white for the lume. The worst part, a small tint of green in the eyes to match the outline of the roman markers! This is not good! Not good at all! I love that cat but that reference just gets my jimmies rustled!! I think I'm doomed! She's a rescue cat. Is it possible to find an abandoned rescue DJII?? We shall see!

Cat looks like it's got an evil scheme.

I'd sleep with one eye open...

She's given me a few scars over the years! You pet her and she goes from purr to kill in a 10th of a second! Have to be on your 'A' game with this one! Especially if she's perched in the cat tree. King of the mountain this cat! She's not as fast as my tuxedo cat. She's older but just as deadly in her own way!

Here she is, mocking me, for considering another watch over turkey giblets cat food dinner for her!

You know, this is looking more and more plausible by the cat.
