Thanks for sharing Tony,

Beautiful watch and combo dear Tony and the story behind it makes so special to you. So nice your daughter has shown interest in keeping it. I also like to wear my DJ and DD with leather straps.
I love your choice of a blue croc straps which complements so well the blue dial of your DJ. I can well understand your deep love for this timepiece which has faithfully accompanied you for so long. Keep loving and enjoying so much my dear friend! Cheers!...
