Congratulations on your successful mission to obtain one of these watches. For some reason this watch makes me want to ask you lots of questions about your decision process and the journey to obtain one. I think every time you have it on your wrist in pub...

I’m extremely jealous and not shy about admitting it. I’ve wanted a classic for several years and missed out a few times. I hope it brings great enjoyment. Looking forward to seeing more pictures.

Great start for the new year, congratulations!

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : January 21st, 2020-09:19
Just curious, how does the crown feel with those little rounded "spikes", sorry I cannot find a good way to describe it. It sure helps in the grip but I bet it causes an impression to your fingers?

Thank you so much

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : January 21st, 2020-12:34
The crown looks like it will hurt you fingers but the winding and time setting is very smooth πŸ€—

Very well done,

 By: S.Song : January 21st, 2020-20:47
Looks really good with the white case. People have forgotten about how good the classic is

You can’t go wrong with any of the Classics . I hear the yellow gold is the rarest of them

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : January 22nd, 2020-00:39
But because i am a sucker for Salmon dials this was the one for me to find and luckily to add .

This one has tons of personality!
