NWD- New Watch Day
« on: April 08, 2021, 07:32:48 PM »
My wife found me the perfect Birthday present . I am a big fan of Taylor Guitars and Original Grain watches. I now have the same number of both. The two companies highly value sustainability. This watch contains ebony from Camaroon and goes nicely with my two latest Taylor purchases : My 814 with variegated ebony fretboard and my E14 with ebony back and sides.

I couldn’t be happier and there’s a “free” pick as a bonus!! Woo hoo!!
Go ahead ask me what time it is!!!

Buy a Taylor Thermex Ultra, get a free watch! That's a real beauty (I mean the watch). Your wife sounds pretty special too.

That's a beautiful watch! What wood was used on the outer edge? In any case, it's a nice addition to your two collections. Happy Birthday and congratulations!

That is a very nice looking watch.  I am impressed.  The dial is cool, the bezel is beautiful, the bracelet is nicely matching, the watch box is very cool in its own right.  Congratulations.  Wear it in good health CB.
