It's so true!

To be honest, I wish I had a dollar for every time these words were spoken in regards to the CHNR, then the watch would pay for itself in a week.

Hi

Not a Sheffield AD, but one I do have some purchase history with.

Both my Subs came from them.

I went to see them around Christmas time, had a long chat with the Manager & just asked him if he would consider me for this model and a couple of others I'm interested in.

Fair play, he remembered me and gave me first refusal on this one.

Very happy about that tbh


Cheers.

No, I was surprised about that myself & was fully expecting it.

I think because they are a smaller indipendant family owned type AD & not a national chain, there is still an old fashioned element of trust on both sides.

They know I still have both the watches I purchased from them previously & I know if I did flip this I probably wouldn't get anything else from them in the future.

Not that I want to anyway, it is a beautiful thing and I want to enjoy it for some time to come.
