111 gone...233 inbound

Hi everyone,
So I did it! I had previously considered trading my BLNR towards the 233. However, after much soul searching and great input from all especially Pattyb69, rolexlover85, and Mr. Kram for helping me move forward in the process. I decided to trade my 111 instead. Can't wait for FedEx to get here on Monday. I conducted the trade with Gil known here as TWCNY. Pics of the incoming from his listing.

Owned both and 233 is great one! The dome is sleek and 8 day movement is solid.

It's here!! And on an OEM green canvas strap. I'm so glad I moved forward on the trade. It's a beautiful watch.
