A few comments on Hirsch Straps
I received my Hirsch straps today. I spent more on these (because I had an Amazon gift card) than I have on any other leather strap. They are Duke line. The first disappointment was that they are made in China, despite the band reading, "Hirsch, Austria Since 1765." In terms of quality, they seem awfully stiff, but I've felt that way before about several straps and they have broken in over time.One positive thing is that they are padded and the strap is thicker by the lugs and then gets thinner towards the buckle.I'd love to buy an American made strap, but my budget tops out, apparently, at the Chinese made line of Hadley Roma and HirschWell, at least the NOS metal bracelets from Times of Plenty were American made

Hey guys!My relationship with my fiance Tiffany now has co-dependency problem!She now "officially" owns more watches than I do ! ! !She has begun hiding new watch purchases from me so I won't know that she is spending more money ! ! !I know of a few guys on this forum who hide new watches purchases from their wives and I always thought that it was kind of funny.That was until it happened to me ! ! ! ! Last night Tiffany fessed up to buying a new Michele Urban Diamond full size with the black dial and over a carat of diamonds around the bezel.She said that she has been hiding this watch from me for over two months now.I guess this is all of my own doing though, I started giving her several watches as gifts about 4 years ago and I got her hooked.Some of the watches in her collection rival mine ! ! ! !Here are a few pics from just ONE of the boxes on her dresser.This is her new Michele that was rather expensive that she hid form me for 2 months.Full size Movado Museum black dial.1950's 14

Huge pleasure in giving.
Yesterday was huge brownie points for me from with Mrs. Kevan, green box given with a bi-metal DJ, diamond numerals. She was over the moon. I enjoyed delivering that gift....I then had an epiphany moment. My son is going to get them all when I shuffle off, so why not continue the giving theme. I presented him with my white steel Daytona. I waited for that watch and loved buying it. But I gained so much more giving it to someone who will cherish it. The look on his face was priceless.As I did that my wife gave our daughter a copper faced DJ, the first Rolex I bought my wife.I don't think I have ever enjoyed parting with a loved possession so much.
