Yup, and not everyone has to wait for everything despite what you think. He's got a watch that he doesn't enjoy wearing, what's the point in keeping it around?

Hello everyone today I bit the bullet and swapped the DJ for the north flag and I must say at first I did start to miss the DJ but every time I look at my new north flag I think less of my DJ and more of the places I'll take my new watch.

Thank you every one for your time,

live young and prosper

Great watch. My next one, actually, and it flies under the radar. It's a great looking bit of a quirky item with fantastic specs.

No one who doesn't know their watch brands would think it is simply a novelty watch.

Personally I'd have spruced and sold the DJ myself and got a Blackbay. The AD was obviously struggling to shift the North Flag. Hey if you're happy.

I love the don’t trade down people... if you love the north flag get it! It’s superior in every way to an 88 datejust from a technical stand point.....
but it doesn’t say Rolex!!! Gasp!

I was about to write that I thought it was a fair deal; glad you like it.
