Back from St. Maarten, here's what found it's way back w/ me:



TT Sub
Sorry for the crappy pic, just wanted to post one quickly! The dealer was polite, the price was right, and the store kept giving me heinekens!

just under...and, like i said, they kept giving us drinks, my fiancee and her sister drank about as much as me. my fiancee also got a nice citizen watch for $300 off list price, only paid $100...not too shabby.

Well done, Tom. Pay for a few beers and they throw in a TT Sub. Not too shabby.

Wear it in good health and enjoy.

From one TT Blue Sub owner to another, Congratulations!!! Beautiful watch!

And don't let Adrian tell you anything about the black dial being superior. He's just jealous!

Congrats... amazing that when you are a serious buyer in an AD in the Carribean, that staff will ply you with as much free booze as possible as you're browsing and negotiating.

haha, well i had a few before we even got to the store. we went in a few other stores first, and as long as you acted interested in SOMETHING (could have been a damn postcard...), the shopkeepers would offer you something to drink. i'm telling you, i'm not one for shopping, but if i had to, that would be the way to do it!
