Incoming Christmas present to myself.

Post by aaronequalsgaron » Tue Dec 22, 2015 11:39 pm

I am very thankful and very blessed this year. Had some funds left after purchasing gifts so I decided to just spend it all.

First I got a new shoulder tattoo, halfway done. Secondly, I knew I wanted a watch. I wanted a chronograph to add to my collection, was deciding between 2 preloved pieces. A Longines master collection and a vintage Omega Dynamic Chrono. Went with the latter. I fell inlove with how creamy the hour markers became. It was serviced last Jan 2015. It doesn't have the original bracelet but wasn't at all mad because I was planning to put it on a rally leather or a canvas. Will take approx 2 days to arrive. But I'll be in LA. Hoping to get it by 27 or 28.

Nice Omega to add to your great collection. Congrat's. Hope you find it to be all original.

Nice Omega.

I'm not into tattoos, so I'd have spend that portion on hookers & blow.

Tattoo verified it. Navy + Nurse = Filipino.

Congrats on the watch, Pare.
