New Avenger - special to me

Enjoying this new 43mm Avenger we had made up for our company. It was my idea so I got the first one of the 250 they are initially producing. They are not numbered or anything but still neat to me. ( I just know I got the first one because I was working with the lady at the jewelry store we went through and she sent mine out the day they came and are holding the rest of the initial batch until after the holiday and they will go out next week). No significance to it being number 1 or anything like that though.
We ordered these in November or December, can't remember which, so I was excited they finally came in.

I really like this! It makes me think back to the 60s,70s, even 80s and beyond where (seemingly) more companies did this to mark work anniversaries and other achievements.

It's a great looking watch and I'm certain the other 249 lucky recipients will be thrilled once theirs arrives.

Wow congrats Wes that’s super cool! Pilot I assume? Or just a longtime employee? Either way it’s super cool!

A little surprised you didn't collaborate on a GMT Wes. It's the one complication every pilot should have.

Of course, I assume these orders were in before the TA was announced. Otherwise, they would have been Pateks ;)

Enjoy in good health.
