Finally

Almost two years after my 25 year old GMT was stolen I have replaced it! I have been patiently waiting for a non date Sub, as I really don’t like or need the date. I got a message from my AD this afternoon and grabbed my checkbook and jumped in the car. A few minutes later it was on my wrist. Many thanks to AR Morris!

I loved that GMT but this is a pretty good consolation prize

Congrats! I know it's especially hard dealing with the feelings around a stolen watch -- the violation that accompanies those memories. Great that you closed that loop!

Classic of classics. Congrats.
I would not miss a new GMT but would Shed tears on a 25 years old one :-(
