Happy birthday Louise!

Only yesterday my wife (who tolerates rather than indulges my watch habit) said: “You might be surprised but I’ve seen a watch I really like” then showed me the email from CW with this on.

That sure is a lovely watch, the colour combination is superb. I’m delighted for you Lou as I know how much you wanted this watch and the effort made by Ferg to get it. Enjoy your birthday weekend in Belfast.

Well Alex at least we do know who the new member is. :)

I remember the first post from SallyB, who IIRC indicated that they were a rock chick. Oh how the more naive forumites flocked like bees to a homey pot with their welcome! :lol:

(Turned out that Sally wasn’t new to the forum after all. :lol:)

Sadly they were out of stock and I felt I might go for yellow dial version but my heart was still on the Lucerne......
I couldn't believe it when Ferg presented it to me for my Birthday today :D 8)

Do you think other colour straps would look so good? White maybe?
White, black, orange, yellow, fusia, chartreuse, but not brown. A mesh bracelet if you want to be even more unique.
