Happy Tuesday forum friends!

Taking a casual day today, I have a monster Q1 budget review meeting this afternoon and wanted to be comfortable. Natty Boulders:

I've enjoyed the watch pics on here recently. This one has a little story...my youngest brother is 12 years younger than I am. My parents split up and lost everything his senior year of high school, so he came to live with me and my wife. Tough time for a young man, we took him in and helped him finish high school and to eventually join the Navy. He spent 6 years enlisted and running reactors on submarines, then moved to Texas and finished a degree at A&M on Navy money.

Fast forward, Rolex had never been on my radar because most of their watches look tiny on my 8 1/4" wrists. However, in 2017 they redesigned the Sea Dweller in 43mm for it's 50th birthday, which happened to coincide with my 50th birthday. My brother gave me this as a present for my 50th to remind me that some boats really are supposed to sink.
