Incoming!

It’s a very rare event for me... so I figured I should post an “incoming” thread. My wonderful wife surprised me with this for my 40th birthday! I still adore my Explorer (214270) but I have to say, the 126610LN is just incredible in person. As another thread put it: the sub is king. It is nice to have a couple options now after years with the Explorer as my one and only. And I am so lucky to have a “one and only” that understands and—at least this one time—actively supports my watch obsession! Very lucky, indeed.

Enjoy the weekend, everyone.
