New Watch AD opened at my local mall

So was at the mall last weekend that I always go to and they opened a new wing recently and I decided to take a stroll through and what do you know the jeweler that I got my Speedy MK2 from opened a new store (L'oro Jewelers). So of course I walk in and browse the place and lo and behold they have an Omega Boutique in there......BIG MISTAKE walking in there! So I start chatting with the guy there and then one of the Co-Owners introduces himself and we got into a conversation about watches and I mention that I got my speedy MK2 from their other location. So he starts showing me some watches. I see in the case the legendary Omega PloProf. Holy shit that thing looks absolutely AMAZING in the metal. I always thought it was a huge ugly watch but in reality it's not THAT big at all. He takes out and lets me try it on. I fell in love. "It's so ugly it's beautiful" is what the guy said and he could not be any more accurate in describing that watch. It fit me perfectly. The L2L is actually short and I had plenty of room left. The bezel action was THE BEST I have ever felt. The bezel lock mechanism is way cool and this is a real deal dive watch top to bottom. The clasp was a beast and absolutely breathtaking. The mesh bracelet, nothing can compare to it. Omega has the best mesh hands down. What also caught my attention is the orange minute hand....it glowed! It's not painted but actually orange anodized and when the light hits it a certain way it glows like a ray of vitamin C infused sunshine.

I also saw another watch I fell in love with (thanks to Brice) is the Bell and Ross 123 GMT. Tried that on and REALLY liked it as well. The rubber strap on it sucked though.

They are planning to have other luxury watch brands set up their boutiques in their store and they will sell for them. I will definitely be going in there everytime I go to that mall which is often. I'll take some pics next time I go in.

I've got PloProf wood now and it's gonna take a while to go away........I still have it 4 days after. Who needs viagra.
