Incoming GMT BLNR from Takuya!!!!!!!

So happy to report that I now have a GMT BLNR on the way from Thanh Do (Takuya). Should be here tomorrow (7 Nov). Easy to deal with, good price, very good at communicating, calling, texting, emails and keeping the deal on track. Has made me feel comfortable the whole way through... I'll post pix as soon as it is here.

kieselguhr,
How are things out in Vegas? I have to be out there to give a speech at a convention in a few weeks. Never been. Should be fun.

Darth is going to take that watch!!!!............


Enjoy OP. real good looking piece. Something about that sliver of blue that you just cant take your eyes off the watch. For every one time you need to look at watch to tell time, you look at it 1000 more just to gawk and drool.

Right on, my man. I didn't know you had the same watch. Great minds think alike.
