Incoming Polar 226570 :)
AD really came through. No purchase history. 2 week wait. Fully stickered with coffin. Also kept my place in line for an OP41 Coral. Happy Saturday.

Technically I have bought links for a few of my watches and I like to stop in and chat with the staff. Manager says they really try to hook up the enthusiast who is not a flipper.

8.25 inches. That said, I prefer 40mm in general. I am keeping both.

I prefer the red hand also. I am getting bespoke alligator straps made for both, with the color matching the GMT hand. I like to be a little playful. :)
