Very nice story, Wade!

I won't say anything really different than the others people already said here, but this is very nice story, just like I like it, and I think I can understand the feeling. If no one mind I'd like to share as well a similar story, I'll make it short because on many aspects I think it's very close to what you told us here already.

About two months ago, I needed some kind of oxygen, escape, or a break. I was walking through place Vendome in Paris going home and I decided to stop at Breguet boutique. I knew at this time that I was probably not going to buy a new watch but nevertheless I decided to enter and ask to see one or two models. Just like your experience, the sales person has been really really nice. Not only he show me the watches I asked for but he told me the story, and he proposed me to have a look/try to others watches that I would even never had a look. It has been a really good experience to go too this boutique and talk with this man.
Now, like you, there is one watch in my mind I'd like to be mine this year (hum, actually maybe another one from JLC as well ).

I sincerly hope that you will be able to realize your "dream" soon or later. Thanks so much for sharing your story with us.

Best,
Pascal

Not mine...yet. But inspiring.

I was in Las Vegas last week for a conference. I'm not much for gambling so I spent my free time walking through the shops. There are amazing watch stores in Vegas and I enjoyed checking out the different watches and the watch talk with the different sale...

Great story, Wade.
