We complain about flippers, we complain when measures are taken to prevent flipping. That being said, probably easier to ask for pictures of watch with a time stamp and with a piece of paper with a randomly selected word next to the watch rather than a proof of life picture. |

Man, that is an awesome story. It’s crazy that you might wait 6 months, or in your case, 5 years, lol. Great story though and enjoy that time piece!

Thanks again all.
Yeah I am still coming down a bit from the excitement haha. I just realized I never really spoke about the watch. It wears pretty darn well for a 42mm Rolex. The thickness is somehow hidden away, as I remember by IWC Portuguese was not a svelte watch by any means. The jubilee bracelet though, my god it is good. This is the first jubilee I have had, and have had 5 or 6 oyster bracelets. I do find myself playing with the bezel and functions of the SkyD. It's just too much fun :D Yeah you never know. I do think that if I chased my AD a bit, I would have got it much faster, but having just let it flow through a generic list, it took way longer.
