Oh, one has to wait as the watch is no longer in one's possession :lol:

It's a present from the rest of the family and we have a tradition of Your Willpower Will be Tested to the Maximum Because You Will Wait Until the Big Day.


The only exception, ever, was many years ago when we decided to surprise our father with a new TV. It had to be delivered on Christmas Eve for obvious reasons and was too large and heavy to hide anywhere, so he got his present - complete with big red bow on top - a day early.

That's lovely. I can sense the inner child in you bubbling through in anticipation for Christmas morning :-)

i hope they wrapped it with really sticky tape so you're not tempted to occasionally unwrap it in the middle of the night to admire the glow, then rewrap it before anyone is the wiser...
