Doubled my salary by switching to EY and now giving out bomb ass Christmas gifts. Zenith is for my dad, and Seamaster for me. For context the “nicest” watch I had before this was a Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium. Feels good to spoil my family and myself for a change.

Beautiful gift for the pops! Well done. How’d you acquire the El Primero? Go through a retailer? I’m scouting that very model and want to get a feel for avail and pricing (relative to MSRP). Thx?

Doubled by switching to EY? Shocking tbh

I still need to get a Zenith for myself! (Funny enough the most expensive watch I bought wasn’t even for me, I almost didn’t even get myself one but then I decided to treat myself too 😂) Will likely be one of my next purchases for the next big occasion, although LOVING the Seamaster for the moment.
