It's beautiful, glad he loves it!

Thank you Swanky :D

I agree about the pricing! Whenever I see a watch on here and think "hmm, should I have considered that?" I check the price, and it's always more than I could have afforded. I was lucky to get it before the latest price increase.

You are so lucky to get it before the recent price increase! It is still my favorite watch! I saw a SA at Tous who had the TT mid-size version and I was practically drooling on her hand. We ended up talking about Cartier for the entire time (hopefully I didn't get her in trouble)! I think the BB is very classic yet whimsical (due to the large numbers) and comfortable because of the domed back. :heart: One day!

Awe...what a nice gift! I gave hubby a tag watch on his birthday the year we got married. He wore it on our wedding day. The guys should get something nice too! After all, they forked out quite a bit for our lovely e-rings....

He is very much like your DH! I tried to get him into "man jewelry" i.e. bracelets and necklaces, but he wouldn't have any of it! He's a one ring + watch kinda guy. And I agree, they deserve something beautiful too!

Here's an old old photo -

Unfortunately I don't have one with the NATO strap on !

I know that what will defiinitely void the warranty is any work done to the dial, bezel or the movement of the watch. I've seen a lot of custom watches, for instance with aftermarket diamonds or a skeleton back put on. Unfortunately, they sell for much less if you compare the resale values as Rolex will no longer touch the watch!

Ayla, what a beautiful pic!! The sub is classic Rolex!! And reallllyyy hot shoes! I was checking them out in Nordstrom the other day. They are surprisingly light (Mom always told me lightness is a sign of a well-made shoe. You don't want to be walking around with 2 lb weights strapped to each foot)! I didn't try them on, but I am sure they are comfortable.
 
Yah, if he's not into jewelry, then leave it at that. Anything else will just end up sitting in his closet. That way you focus on jewelry for yourself! At least that's how I justify it... haha...

My hubby was with me at tiffany's choosing a birthday gift for me, and he tried on one of their watches. He feel in love with it. I was one of those mechanical watches with the skeleton back. Very cool. Maybe I'll get him the watch for a future milestone.....
 
Great gift Kohl! Men are picky about watches. My husband has a Rolex that he got as a grad gift from his parents and a Tag chrono that I got him a year after we got married. Both of which he rarely uses. Very disappointing...... At least, he loves the blue Omega Seamaster that my parents gave him as a wedding gift. He wears it everyday! So with that being said, I'm really glad your DF loves his GMT coz I'm sure he'll be wearing it daily. I'm sure it will make u happy when he's wearing it and his GMT will always remind him of u too! Congrats in advance!
 
Great gift!! My DF wanted the green submariner as a wedding gift and i'm saving up for that now!!

Yes, you are absolutely right! I am very grateful and happy that he wears his GMT. Every time he wears it, I feel satisfied that I made the right decision and that he loves the watch as much as I hoped he would!! And thank you!
