Wow. I just realized how you almost never wear the Deeo Sea anymore.

Keeping it clean for a future SDc trade? :)
No sir, was just preoccupied with other newbies :)
This one is a keeper and a perfect candidate for a one-watch scenario :)

I would have to agree on that!

Colors are perfect, but that gap would drive me insane. Do they not make a 22mm in turquoise?

Yep. I don't foresee me having any other. The Deep Sea is a great choice for the one-watch guy.

Here's the watch I picked up today for my wife. She's not a watch person so when I bought the Deep Sea I asked her what watch she wanted...I've looked all over for a watch called the "1 carat Emerald cut" but couldn't find it...so I had the jeweler make this one, with a center of 1.19.

Guess when she gets home this'll have to do:

Very nice, she'll be happy.

Finished all my work by noon and spent the rest of the day on the gun range practicing IDPA with a high school friend... had a blast! Now relaxing with my wife at home with the SMP.
