It seems like only yesterday I did the "fist post - new watch" post on here. Now I'm constantly looking for new pieces, geez you guys are enablers.

I've been looking on and off for a 79x80 for a while, had the good fortune of a recent business deal go my way and saw this piece come up for sale and jumped on it. It's going to be a nice contrast to my black submariner.
