Big congrats Paul...you know I love the blue dial!

Even better...

it's gonna look killer with a 5990 next to it!

It's time to "pull a hamstring" and get out of those meetings!

Big Congrats! Definitely a future classic (well, it's pretty much a classic already), and looking forward to more pics after you have it sized.

Huge congrats! Great choice, as well. This is arguably the best SS sports watch in existence (IMHO)!

I know what you mean... happened to me once. Thought I was going to go into convulsions until I realized that I had a tool that works perfectly.

I hate not having a Patek AD around me...but I'd rather wait and get it done properly. I might even make an excuse to run to Houston, wonder if Tiffany's would size it for me
