Now part of the monster club!

I just got in the mail today and my Monster came in. I am so excited, I have been wearing my GMT so much now it can get finally get a break, I love it so far, check it out

For those of you that contributed to my thread (http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=115335 )
I am thankful for your advice. I made my decision to pick up a Monster, I feel it was a good purchase and only slightly set me back from getting a sub. I am done buying watches until I can afford my no-date sub!

Well done on a great choice

My BM gets heaps of wrist time :-) and gets quite a few looks and comments from clients too, they are use to me with a Rolex on my wrist, I'm quite surprised how many collectors have a monster lurking around

Thanks for the welcome. I am looking forward to seeing my Orange Monster too. It should be arriving to Zurich from Singapore (creationwatches.com) on Monday.

I just bought a Steinhart Ocean 1 Vintage Red, had some money left over and got the bug for an Orange Monster.

I don't see too many Seiko's in Switzerland and have only seen one Black Monster used in a shop. They were asking over 600CHF for the Black Monster! I can't wait to shake things up a bit here with my Orange Monster.

Also, I don't own a Rolex, but I sure have learned a lot from this forum about Steinhart's and Seiko's. Thanks and keep up the great work!

I will post pictures soon.
