I started wearing wrist watches very early and had loved them so much as a kid (I don't even remember to wear them anymore). Dad bought me one when I was going to live with my Grandma in the village, but honestly I wanted something much better, an Oris. Dad complained that I was too young to wear something so expensive but promised to get me one if I did very well in my entrance examination into high school. It was a four year wait and trust me to remind him of his promise when I performed excellently and gained admission into high school. Dad had forgotten all about it but he is an honourable man, he did redeem his promise.
