Incoming... And now all set

Thanks to David SW for checking the box in his usual flawless fashion for my new to me Exp II. Initial impressions are pretty much all I thought considering a year long decision process: light, comfortable and the pop of the black face and red 24 hr hand all excellent and as I had hoped.

My evolution as a TRF'er has now come to an end regarding a "collection" - two and through or two and BBQ as they say. Although trades could be the next step...?
