Getting Close!

So I’ve finally moved back to the states and feel like I’m getting pretty close to securing the watch that has continued to sing to me along this journey. We are now located in Alexandria, VA. and I’m working on tracking down an LV. This watch seems perfect for me as my wife and I met while we were both in the Army. Both our kids were born while I was still in and she is currently serving at the Pentagon, I have transitioned to consumer lending. Our son that we adopted from my wife’s sister after she passed away just joined the Army and is now stationed in Germany. I have a couple shops that really sound like they might help me out so I’m getting fairly excited. I’ll keep this post updated in the event it finally happens.

One of the shops let me know they got a bluesy in but I want to try and hold out for what I really want!

It’s a tough market to get one in. It took me 8 months and a few purchases to get one in DC Metro area. I wish you the best in finding one. It’s a fantastic watch. You’ll love it.

You need to travel out of the main city into some small town with a small mum & pup store. Probably the best luck you can have to get one.
