How did you find it? AD or Grey?

I have a friend on AD list for over a year

Great watch - looks great on your wrist

as far as homecoming....thanks.. not much has changed down there, hoping 2020 will bring some positivity. still running on on a standby generator and a 400 gallon water tank that needs to be filled every so often.

i only got away for christmas to get a change of scenery.

Can anyone tell me which mk dial this is? I believe it’s 3 but was hoping some experts might chime in, just out of curiosity!

It's the MK3. Very easy to recognize, the 300 and m are glued (300m). On the other dials there is a space, a good way to quickly distinguish.
