It finally happened!

I'm getting my LVc after a 14 month wait!!!!!

Little back story.

I made a deposit on this watch with an AD in Indiana in October 2017 and was told I would have the watch by Christmas last year. That deadline came and went, then it was supposed to be March, then "any day now" finally I got so fed up with the games I requested a they refund my deposit (this was 2 weeks ago). Since then I've been in contact with a few AD's and have had regular contact with them a couple times a week. The other day I received and email asking "hypothetically" if one became available would I be ready to buy it. I said absolutely!! Well today I got an email and they said they just received one and it's mine if I would like it

Sending the funds to the AD tomorrow and I should have the watch by Friday! I just got my SD50 Sunday and now this a few days later!! Best week ever and I'm beyond excited!

Will post pics once it arrives.

Sorry you had to go through all that grief just to get a watch. But very happy for you and it's curious how you requested a refund and then one magically appears. But all that matters is you got what you wanted. Congrats!

Thank you.

It was such a pain in my ass. This watch isn't even coming from the dealer I had the deposit with. Completely different AD who I've just started talking with.

Oh... Sorry, I wasn't following the thread that closely. Well, in that case glad you found a AD who is taking care of you. Enjoy and please share pics!
