Aw yeah! Who needs a watch when you can play a dream like that?
Congrats!

 

[DISTORT6]

Damn! What a great looking guitar.
Congrats!

Forget the watch, it’s always guitar time with that stunner!!!

 

[Bogner]

Who Needs A Watch When You Can Always Look At That Beauty And Know What Time It Is...Time To Play Guitar!

Congrats On That Nice Ride!

All gifts should be PRS. For everyone.

Who needs to tell time when you e got a guitar like that!! Congrats on a stunner!

 

[Tedder]

Congrats on the score! Beautiful guitar!

 

[JasonE]

Wow, that is beautiful, congrats!

It is cool that they would do that for you. I wouldn't expect the company I work for to do anything like that. I have had 2 milestones at this company. They gave me a pen and a plaque on the first one. The second milestone they gave me a Harley luggage bag for my motorcycle. The only reason they knew that would work is because my boss knows I take motorcycle trips and I would probably use it. I know the bag was $300.

You need to make sure you hold on to that job!

 

[Tedder]

Yeah that is very cool of your company! I hit 7 years at mine a couple of months ago and no one even mentioned it.

If I ever hit the 'fancy watch' milestone with a company, I am definitely going the 'ask for a sweet guitar instead' route.

That might be the best looking Studio I’ve seen. Gorgeous, and that neck really tops it off just right. Super nice!

 

[vchizzle]

Nice milestone and nice they agreed to the change up! Beautiful!

 

[Moondog Wily]

Congrats, that is a killer substitute (for a watch) and guitar! Enjoy!!

Here is a clip from the movie "Head Office" (1985) about the recognition that some receive for their time (watch pun intended) with a corporation! If you have not seen this movie, find it and watch it!! In my top 10 movies EVER!!!

Congratulations, you see Amber Lampshades = milestone happiness.

 

[opnoob]

As a watch guy and a guitar guy, that would be a dream decision to have to make haha.

 

[SinSir]

Absolutely amazing! Congrats! I'm a watch guy, but hot damn did you make a winning move.

 

[veinbuster]

Great way to commemorate a milestone.

 

[Greywolf]

I'll take that over a watch , although they did give me a sweet Movado for my 30th

 

[FragileThunder]

Spectacular! Congratulations, that’s a nice way to be recognized.

My soon to be new employer wants me to propose my own bonus structure. This gives me a great idea. “No honey, I didn’t buy a new guitar…it was a bonus…”
