OK, so this is a bit of a nothing post, but I'm off to pick up my Complications 19 in a few minutes, and even after buying more watches than I want to admit to my wife, I still get that buzz of excitement on a new arrival.

I think it's really cool that each new piece can still give me that same thrill as the first decent watch - that's what this hobby of ours is all about after all.

I knwo - you want pictures - you'll have to wait until the weekend when I get some time, but you'll get your shots, and maybe one or two surpises too :wink:

Congrats my man - I'm sure it'll be a beauty. :thumbsup:

And another cap (beige with the writing on the brim)

And another surprise

And yet another surprise

All will be revealed on the weekend - you'll just have to wait.

@gazruss - it came from Yorkdale - I put a deposit on during a rather excessive discount period earlier in the year.

Man this is going to be a great day for you! Can't wait to see pictures of it and all the goodies!
As an aside, my late Uncle had two Rolls Royces painted in the very shade your watch dial is in, one had magnolia leather the other dove grey, the same colour used in the queens royal cars! That blue is something else! Stunning, I can't wait to see it on a watch face!

We talked last year about having a Toronto get together as there are quite a number of GTA members. It never happened but happy to try and reconvene. I'm the pain as I work in the city but live on Georgian Bay so have to get out of town fairly early, but I can arrange a lunch / AD visit at a couple of possible locations.
