The one I should have never sold! - Incoming

Long story short - Liquidated my collection a few months back to partially fund the construction of my vacation home.

Little did I know, it was also a chance to rebuild the collection from scratch. I worked extra hard to close some good deals that would allow me to have a little extra "play money" As I looked at several different watches such as the SD4K an older GMT I realized there was one watch that I simply could not get out of my head.

I knew I should have never gotten rid of that watch and I tried to get myself to try something "different" and "new" but nothing really came close... So today, I am extremely glad it is Out For Delivery!

Want to guess what it could be?!

It's here!

Ah it looks even better this time around. I am so happy it is back. Thank you Brian G. (briboxer) for making it happen!

I don't have any sizing tools in my office so this will need to wait until I get home!

All sized up, stickers removed and ready for battle.

Someone got Loctite happy at Rolex so the sizing cost me a screwdriver tip!
