Dear friends,
I have been lurking in here for quite sometimes, but rerely post anything. Today is a good chance that I could start my first thread.
Last week I have got a call from my AD that the grail that I have been waiting for has finally arrived. So, my wife and I went there to see it. Without any expectation, we were also offered with other 2 gorgeous pieces beside my grail that we could not leave the place without.
At the end of that fine afternoon, we took home 3 babies, one for my lovely wife and two for myself.
My wife and I are planning to cut the seal together and I have been thinking which one should I unwrap first. I will try to post some more pics soon. Have a wonderful day 
Warm regards,
Bom

Its only fair to cut the 2 seals together
bingbom, Welcome to the world of posting regularly. It occurred to me that you should both cut the seals of one watch each, at the same time. We're fair like that on PuristS ! Then, comes that delectable moment when you have to cut the last seal......with...

Thanks for finally posting! Congrats and remember to share with us the seal cutting ceremony.
There are especially two sentences ...
of you that made me smile and I like them a lot: "we could not leave the place without" :-) "My wife and I are planning to cut the seal together and I have been thinking which one should I unwrap first." Yes, it has to be celebrated. Both of you got at le...

5131 J
Wow! I thought that the 5131 J has been discontinued? This is what the US AD's have been saying, but I guess you proved them wrong. Otherwise, it may be the last of the series. Cheers!
Now, that is...
a heck of a shopping spree!! I hope the opening ceremony was celebrated with a glass of something special! Enjoy! MW :-)
