My brother came to visit over the weekend along with the kids. He has a pretty high position at a major manufacturer of cars and heavy duty trucks. His daughter -my niece (3 yrs old)- came to me at some point and gave me a beautiful heavy white square box with a logo: it was a gift. I had no idea what it was until I opened the gorgeous box.
All of a sudden I remembered a conversation I had with my bro last time he came over. I’d noticed his beautiful watch and told him that I wouldn’t mind spending money on one like his. At the age of ten my parents bought me a beautiful tiny watch but somehow it must have been cursed, I’ve never gotten it to work properly…
I bought watches over the years but didn’t really use them. If someone asks me what time it is I normally can tell by looking at the sky or sun. I’m pretty accurate too because of years of training *wink* so I didn’t need one. My brother’s watch was something different, I absolutely adore the design: it reminded me of my sleek Powerbook.
So I was astonished to find this beautiful exclusive branded watch inside the box that was given to me by my niece. You can’t just buy these, they’re corporate gifts. This one is also a men’s watch because I like ‘big’ sizes *hehe* It has a genuine leather band and I wear it on the inside of my arm (for protection): just like my dad used to.
I think the watch is awesome and I think I have a pretty awesome brother too *hehe*
Isn’t it gorgeous?
I so love the design!
Black leather band, watch is heavy! *hehe*
wow, it’s very elegant
*hehe* it’s huge
That is a beautiful watch!
I have this great Mighty mouse watch that I need to get fixed. I broke the glass on a metal pole on the bus.
Thanks
Ever since, whenever I would wear a watch, I would wear it like him 
What a shame about the glass, I hope you can get it fixed! This is why I wear mine on the inside of my arm like my dad used to. I asked him once -a long long time ago- why he would wear his watch like that and he explained to me that it was to protect it since he had to do a lot of manual work he could easily break it like you did, by hitting it by mistake. It never happened thought because of his ‘trick’
It works!
