So I had some free time on my hands and decided to make a random trip to the Seiko Boutique on Madison. I saw a lot that I liked this time, as they had plenty of new inventory.

And then I had to try on this newer green 62MAS ReIssue

Fortunately the sole salesperson was distracted with some guys in there looking at Grand Seikos, so I was able to make a clean getaway without too much trouble/sales pressure.
Stepped outside and went next door to Tourneau just to calm down a bit after the Extreme Seiko Temptation.
Turns out I stumbled into a 30 month zero percent financing special that Tourneau was having. Of course they have this amazing Patek Philippe Gondolo that I've always wanted, and at a GREAT price too.

Told the salesperson that I needed to go have a drink and think about it

Decided to sober up and hold off on the Patek

But I'm still dreaming about that green Seiko diver

I really gotta stop with these shopping trips. They are a lot of fun but then I get tempted by these amazing watches that I might not otherwise have cared about. I had already talked myself out of this green diver a few weeks ago because of the gold trim on the hands and hour markers, but after seeing it again I decided I liked it. The guys in the store buying the Grand Seiko liked it too LOL!
And don't even get me started about the Patek. Fortunately the zero percent financing deal is now over so I can rest easy on that one.
