Its not what you know, its who you know!
Looks what happens when you mention a certain members name from this forum to a particular AD in London while visiting them.
  From asking tongue in cheek, what was the availability of a 5167A, and being informed about 2 months. To then receiving an email only hours later, that one was on its way from Geneva and would be here within the week. Thanks Brian:thumbs:  Who incidentally was totally unaware, until I contacted him a few days ago. I am looking forward very much to collecting it in a couple of weeks.

Did you meet the infamous Jamie? And I have to ask the obvious question: Will you be receiving any gifts?

Tony: Where is your watch now? Are you going to pick it up by yourself? Maybe you can ask a gift from Jamie before you pick up the watch.
