Icon2 My addiction is pretty bad right now - I've bought 4 in the last 3 weeks

Purchased two AK's @ an AD.. and the other 2 DJ's (a TT and SS) through TZ. The question is does it get any better? This is almost as bad as a crack addition - not that I would know wth that feels like but you get the picture.

Help!

Which dials did you pick for the AKs?

You know you are really hooked when you buy identical AKs
so you won't be lacking if one is in for service.

I went with a silver and black dial for the AK's.

WOW! I am not sure it gets better - maybe it will when you have at least one of every model?

Both DJ's I purchased were birth year watches... is 1980 considered vintage? If so looks like I'm already sucked in!

Lol.. you're probably right! I go to to this place in DC called The Tiny Jewelry Box - right off Conn Ave.

Didn't even think to look @ places here (because I used to live in Arlington) guess I just feel more comfortable in DC. I'll have to check that place out once the weather clears up.

O yea I have been there , Nice place You ought to try Liliquest and Beckstead at the Annapolis Mall and Talk to Craig . Real nice people .They also have a store in Tysons corner which is a little far but what a great watch store. They have all the brands .Then again Maybe you ought to stay away from there for a while after 4 watches
