Any watch people here???? Got a cool story to go with my new watch...

My new Tag Heuer Aquaracer Automatic....





So i bought my Aquaracer friday night. Had it sized but thought it was still a tad bit tight. I return to the AD saturday morning and the owner himself helps me. He goes in the back and returns with my extra links in a small clear zip lock bag that i never look at and just put in my pocket.



I go home empty my pockets on the kitchen counter,watch tv for an hour,then my brother calls so i'm walking by the counter on the phone and i decide to pick up the bag of links and put them away with the box.



I walk by our sliding glass doors and the sunlight shinning thru flickers on something in the bag,i hold the bag up thingking it was the stainless links and see some small round things in the bottom of the bag with the links.



I hold up the bag to the light close to my face and see that the bottom of the bag is FULL OF DIAMONDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I told my brother in law i would call him back and i start freaking out.

I hand the bag to my wife and she (we didnt wnat to open it) counts SIXTEEN 0.5-0.10 sized small diamonds in the bag.



I call the AD and ask for the owner and he is stunned.



I take the bag back and he and most of the other staff are gathered around.



What happend was they were woking on retool for a rolex with diamond bezel and he grabbed a small bag off the work area not paying attention.

Just so happens it had some of the diamonds in the bag.



He thanks me for my honesty as does everyone there and tells one of the staff to "go get a girft cirtificate for me to fill out". I tell himno thanks on the GC becuse i was just doing the right thing.

I've always like the SeaDweller / Submariners but they feel too bulky for me.

I will pick one up eventually but it will have a blue dial and bezel (not two tone though).

The Sea Dweller and the Submariners are not big as you can see in my photos. Actually lots of people complained because they are not "big" enough. These are the same fuckwads that buy Ferraris/Lambos and cruise the boulevards with them instead of hauling ass on the tracks. But I digress. The Sea Dweller only comes in one flavor: black & stainless steel. The Submariner can be dressed up with gold and shit like that. The new Sea Dweller which is called the Deep Sea is massive in both girth and width, and is rated to 12,800-ft depth.
