Wouldn’t normally wear this on a work day but being as I’m incapacitated at the moment, may as well take the opportunity to wear it. Every cloud, eh?

A non desk diving swimming watch seemed appropriate on such a sunny day.

Congratulations, an iconic watch.

I must try that same line with my wife...."sorry darling this was an unexpected arrival, it just appeared yesterday afternoon..." :lol:

^^^Thanks. A&E reckon I’ve sprained or torn my calf muscle. Hurts like hell at the moment. Probably my first day off sick in around 10 yrs. Not into double figures yet after 33 yrs! :silent:

Was it just, like, in a shop window, because that's unheard of for a s/s Rolex sports watch :shock:

No it was very locked away in a safe and only offered to me as ...
I am on two waiting lists with them
I bought 2 rolex and a speedie last year from them
I am so charming I can be impossible to refuse :D

Honestly I feel very fortunate as I only popped in for a chat and didnt expect them to have one or offer it to me. They are a really nice outfit and very happy just to chat watches for as long as you want. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough

I should say they were really finding it hard to get stock. Even exp ii , z blue milguass now very hard in addition to the usual suspects
Cheers now, Paul

Steve, I hope the injury is not too serious or long term, that being said the silver lining can be more time hanging around the forums, more time with your watches and just plain enjoying your down time.

BTW I love your Tudor..........maybe one day......... well it is one of my grail watches.

Heal fast,

Cheers, Mike.
