Reminiscing

I remember in 2018 or 2019 when I was 15 or 16 I was on a family holiday to Broadbeach in the Gold Coast. I was with my grandmother and she went to get my dad a watch. We went into Rolex and Omega too look for a dressier style watch for my dad.

We were in Rolex looking at the Cellini for my dad. I saw something a little bit different with a little bit of sparkle in the case. I said it the sales assistant “can we see that please” lo and behold… it’s a rainbow Daytona. It was also for sale… at retail.

I was begging to my grandmother to buy it for my dad. She said it was “a little bit loud” and didn’t buy it. She bought a Cellini for my dad an an unexpected date just for mum.

That same watch has now tripled or quadrupled in value. Both the watches she bought have depreciated.

Bit of a blunder.

I love you grandma
