As usual, I was getting tired of work, but with nothing else to do, I told myself, "This won't do," and tried to restrain myself. However, I ended up visiting a certain auction site. What I spotted with a keen eye was this TAG HEUER... Oh, this type is new to me! The moment I realized that, all restraint went out the window. I brazenly jumped into the auction, raising the bidding price in one go among the people enjoying the auction (there seemed to be quite a few of them). (￣○￣) I felt a bit of a chill in the air, but I couldn't back down. I kept the momentum and won the bid for this item, the watch in question! ^_^; You might be wondering why I'm putting up something I went to such lengths to get... Well, the truth is, I'm not a fan of leather straps. (´`:) As I've revealed before, I'm a terribly insensitive and careless person. If I wear a watch with a leather strap and go out, I'll tear the loop that holds the strap in place nine times out of ten. It's a real problem (-_-#) Here's another question you might have: why did I bid so recklessly to win it? Well, there's a reason, known to those who know, and completely unknown to those who don't. (￣△￣) One of my many bad habits is that I don't bother to read the item description, let alone the title or even look at the photos, relying solely on the promotional photos... Yes, that's right, I make the mistake of buying without grasping all the details. I'm what you'd call an "impatient" guy (*≧Δ≦) So, before I damage the strap, I'm looking for people who are used to leather straps and are also intrigued by this unusual TAG HEUER. I would like to ask for your consideration in purchasing it. (o_ _)o Oh, and, um, please don't say something like, "Just change the strap." No need for that kind of unrefined comment, please. m(_ _)m
