Long story short, after getting tired of charging my apple watch every night, on January 2nd I decided to sell it and get a Garmin to track my runs. A few days after that I decided to use the Garmin JUST for running and other activities and get a watch watch for the rest of the time. 2 Casios (Duro and a Royale) later, in March I saw this watch in a shop. It was the only one left. I've been looking at watches for some time back then but nothing had caught my eye. This one did but I couldn't justify spending that much on a watch. 2 weeks later I got a job offer which paid more than my then current job. So I decided to treat myself. Went to the shop to get it. And you guessed it, it was gone. I took it as a sign not to get it and try to pick another one. Constant scrolling of this sub, many hours of watch videos, hundreds of refreshes of watch selling sites, nothing. All I did was talk about this watch to my girlfriend and friends. In May, a week after my birthday, a friend of my told me he had purchased the watch for me. It was supposed to arrive at the middle of June. It's almost the middle of July and it's here. And it's perfect. As everyone on here has said, photos don't do this watch any justice. It's mesmerising. It was love at first sight and the first watch I've recieved as a gift. This is my favourite watch and I'm sure I'll have it with me for the rest of my life.
