    ...conspired together before my birthday to obtain this F-ING BEAUTY!


    2254.jpg

    That's right, she actually listens to be me when I drone on and on about watches and how I wanted a Peter Blake Seamaster. Then she remembered I bought my 3570 from Kringkily last year. THEN she actually registered on OF, found him and had him source a 2254! I mean, that's impressive right!

    Pretty happy right now!

    One of the best watch stories I've read. Congratulations! -- it's a spectacular watch.

    Congrats...IMHO it's the best "daily beater" you can wear.
    Not to mention that it's Ray Donovan's favorite watch :)

    Congrats! Your wife needs to speak to my wife! (Ray Donovan wears a 2264, the quartz version.)

    It's a trap!!!!!!

    "Honey, why are you looking at more watches? Don't you like the one I gave you for your birthday? It is the one you told me you wanted, and I even bought it from that nice man George you always talk about. Oh, and why we are on that subject, why did I see on your mobile phone log that you keep calling him every few days?"



    J/K -- congrats on the great gift from a caring wife!

    I would congratulate you on the watch, but the congratulations should go towards the outstanding wife! Happy birthday, hope it was a good one.
