: My congratulations (condolences) on the 40th birthday, and a
: great gift. Personally I think the patch edition is the best of
: the lot for that anniversary edition.

I will post some pics up as soon as I have my camera up and running.
I love this version as it keeps in with the authenticity of the original hesalite, and is nicely understated with it's logo, what with just a sensible sized 'Seahorse' at twelve o' clock, and not too much else going on.
I have one or two nice watches, but nothing feels the same as when I am wearing this, it's tradition and the fact that it relies on me to function!
It doesn't hurt having a sapphire glass, I am not the worlds most elegant and careful man! Plus, this watch will be getting worn.
I hate the concept of saving them for best. The amount of times I actually go out dressed up, it will be an extravagant purchase to say the least.
I would rather wear it death, it can always be sent off one day if it ever needs buffing up or bringing up to spec.

It's been on my wrist two weeks, and I feel naked without it.
