So I'm opening this closet at home that I hardly ever open cuz it's mostly my husband's stuff in there and I find this bag full of fancy pens, watches and wallets that my father-in-law gave my husband. So I'm looking through all this stuff and I find this old, yellow gold, men's Omega. I'm not sure which model but I think it's a Prestige. Anyway, it's gorgeous! And guess what? My husband doesn't wear a watch!!!

So of course yesterday, I take it to a great watch store to get it sized and cleaned and now it's ALL MINE

I feel really lucky cuz at one point I was thinking of trading in my lady's rolex for a mid-size. Now I have a large Omega that's very bling and trendy to satisfy my craving for a larger watch.
