A naive watch collector wandered into a GS Boutique (no intention of buying) and wandered out with this … I said, "It happens to the best of us, Art. You will be very happy with it (or easily swap it to one of us).” Mike ...  

It sure does happen to the best of us. Ask me how know LoL 😄🤪....

I’m not saying I never unintentionally bought a watch, I have. But not today.

. . . fold like an accordion. Time from first sight to final decision was less than ten minutes. And most of those were spent figuring out financing angles. 🤑

All I did was challenge you to an afternoon of pool!

. . . my next bumper sticker will be "A bad day shooting pool beats a good day fishing." 🎱

And how many of us were needed for backup ? 😂 😂 😂

. . . with a higher limit. 😃 Left the high limit cards at home for security reasons. "No way I'll be buying a watch," said I to myself. 🙄

Big mistake -- Nice Watch, No 'big' Credit Card. Groan. They said "No problem".

. . . and will ship it Wednesday. Why Wednesday? Because I'll be home all day Friday . . . intercepting the shipment won't be a problem. Why ship? NYC sales tax: 8.75%. Ventura County sales tax: 7.25%. ...  

And that space downstairs at the Boutique was pretty sweet. Looking forward to seeing it on your wrist on Friday.

Congratulations. Love the Evo9 collection. I have a Green Birch that I really enjoy.

too! You guys are hysterical!

Art Must have been internet-challenged back there on the East Coast

… ceremony! And I can testify the watch is a true beauty with this wrist shot. Big Congrats dear Art! Enjoy this Beauty so much and in the best of good health!! Cheers!! Abel ...  

Hopefully next year we will repeat the pleasure and having you here too! Thank you! Cheers! Abel

It was a dream for me too. May be next year you and me can make the dream come true! Best! Abel

… the idea of repeating a NY meeting is here!! Hopefully it will be possible in 2027!! Raise my glass for that it will come true!!🙏🙏🥂🥂 Best cordial regards Abel

I know how much he wanted a black dial GS and I’m glad he found one to his taste. This Night Birch SLGH017 looks great! Best, Emmanuel

I have seen it in the flesh and it is wonderful. Understated but the opposite if blunt. Enjoy!

Love the black dial .. the texture is more visible on the black.. so you did good seeing it in person. tomba

Congrats to our dear Art, may he wear it in the best of health.
