So, the Captain and yours truly spoke over the phone . . .
Feb 14, 2021,00:04 AM
. . . earlier today. Eventually, the conversation turned to Omega.
"Have you seen the Sedna Speedy Pro, Captain?"
"Not in person yet," said he, "but the local boutique will be getting one in soon. I'm most interested."
"In the States", said I, "we have a way of expressing our admiration for an especially attractive woman: 'built like a brick ____house.'
"Oh, you mean like the Commodores song?"
The Captain obviously knew precisely what I meant.
I continued: "Well, the Sedna's built like a brick house from what I can tell online. I've gotta to see one in the metal."
After exchanging farewells, I called the local Omega boutique. Cut to the chase: they were getting their first Sedna in today. I cancelled plans for dinner with the family and drove to Beverly Hills.
First, the preliminaries: third generation sapphire Pro . . .
. . . and hesalite.
They're like the old Miller Lite commercials: "Everything you've always wanted in a beer . . .
. . . and less." Meaning, everything we've always wanted in a Speedmaster, with nothing added. Pure. Both compelling, hesalite more so.
Then Yanni, a boutique manager, brought out the main event: Sedna.
It was like the scene in 10.
Instant unrequited love. Not lust, love.
Now, I've just got to figure out how to make her mine. Never had a lift this heavy . . . so it might not happen. But . . .
. . . I'm working on it.
