Nothin' Like a Little Snow in May!

Just returned from my watchmaker and picked up my snowflake w/ new seals, top hat plex crystal, bezel insert, and full service. The new crystal and insert make it look brand new but I kept the originals just in case I want to return to the aged patina vibe.
We're having a huge party tomorrow and my "honey do" list is a mile long so no proper pics until I have a chance early next week. But here's a sneak peak.

Beautiful watch, Dan! When I saw your post title, I was going to say I thought KY's weather was better than Ohio's. We're looking at a frost next week. You can't plant your darned tomatoes till June around here. Where's the global warming?
