It was a good time. Amazing how this hobby/passion can bring people together.

We had some Authentic Vietnamese Pho and a few salad rolls to boot!

I can only imagine how much fun it would be for a bunch of us to get together over drinks, or food.

Cheers and have a good night.

Thanks for the kind words bro! Nothing beats talking watches over a delicious lunch with good friends. Next time we will get MrJ320 to join us. James is one of my favorite watch buddies. There is not a nicer gent out there

James, we will always have a seat at the table for you. I know you have a demanding work schedule but let's get together soon!

Someone has go to say it. That 42mm is just too large for your wrist, sorry. I'd recommend considering a small watch - maybe 39.

Nice picture nonetheless.

I can see why you would think that! The angle from which that photo was taken definitely makes it look oversized on my 7.25-inch wrist. Here is a better shot! I do agree the 39mm size fits best on me. Thus, the SS Openworked is my favourite AP of all.
