Just been into town to pick up a wedding suit and popped over the road for a quick look in the AD while I was there.

What did I see staring back at me from pride of place in the centre of the display. Yes, my dream watch - a white face emergency mission. Bartered a 20% discount (down to £2.5k). Is that reasonable?

The truth is, I can't afford it at the moment but GOD it's so tempting!

I'd say that was a pretty good price, especially for the UK. (I'm guessing you are UK with the use of the "£" sign).

If it's your wedding - congrats! And if it's not yours - mine's a pint!

AARGGGHH!!!! Why did you have to post those pictures!!

That's the exact one :) Beautiful timepiece mate, congratulations!

And yep, I'm in the UK, oop north! Not my wedding, my sisters and I'm giving here away (at last :shock: ) :) I got married last year, if I hadn't I'd have that Emergency on my wrist right now!

Thanks, it's what I wanted and I got a great price through my AD (plus I'm single and they have the most beautiful girls you've ever seen behind the counter) need I say more?

LOL

That's a fantastic price! Is it on the Pro II or a strap?

Here's a couple of pics to keep you warm at night....

You'll have a hard time hiding that beastie from your wife! Trust me!!!
You'll regret it if you don't!

Well, I've decided that I just can't justify the Mission at this point (unless my numbers come up tonight :) ) so I got the cape cods out and gave my transocean a bit of a once over -

What do you use to get right into the corners to clean them? I've tried a cotton bud but it's too big?

:shock: Wow I admire your will-power! Will-power is not something that most of us on here are blessed with! :lol: (Or maybe that's just me!! :lol: )

BTW, your Transocean looks great. The old Cape Cods come through with the goods again! :thumbsup:
