This is so embarrassing!
After waiting most of the summer, I finally received the call
from my AD I had been waiting for: my blue Ocean Racer
had finally arrived. "Come on down, Steve," he said, "and we'll
fit him on your Skyland."
An hour later I was sitting in front of the Breitling display, anxiously
waiting for my pal to slide my now beautifully blue-clad Skyland
onto my wrist. (Keep in mind, guys, three months ago I tried on a
Superocean heritage, on an OR, and it fit perfectly.) But now he had to
push hard just to get the watch over my hand. When he was finally
able to close the clasp (set at its outermost limit), it pinched
my wrist so much he had to undo it.
"Steve, have you put on weight" he asked
"Yeah, a few pounds," I said. The truth is, I've put on 30 pounds
over the summer, and most of it seems to have gone to my wrist.
My pal also has something of a belly, so he understands the situation.
"You don't have to keep it if you don't want," he said. "I can put the
Pro II back on."
I looked at the Skyland, so sleek and sexy with its new band. "Nope,"
I said, "I'm keeping it like it is. If I can't loose that thirty pounds,
then I guess I won't be able to wear it."
And so, here I sit, looking at my blue-clad Skyland waiting on my
desk, waiting for me to loose those pounds so I can finally wear it.
And I vow I shall do it! I'll keep you guys posted on my progress.
