Gent's.

Passed through Lakeside shopping centre (Thurrock) yesterday & Goldsmiths had quite a selection in the windoe which included:

A White Gold Sub. (116619B).
A Sub' No date. (14060M).
A black faced Explorer II (16570)
A Steel & Gold Daytona. (not sure of the model number: off-white face with black sub-dials?.... I think?)
A selection of DJII's including TT with champagne face & batons, TT with champagne face & diamonds, SS white face with batons.

All at list price obviously.

I didn't have time to try any on but that's a far better selection than they normally hold.

Not a bad little selection, I'm sure our members in your neck of the woods will appreciate this Dan

No news on the cSub yet Eric mate but regarding the hearing....??

I don't want to bore you with it but this thing is AWESOME!!!!

I've had it what..... three? four weeks?

I had a 'reprogramming' today & I passed the 'TWENTY week test'.....

Prior to the implant my hearing was so bad it was.... quite literally & I promise you this is NOT an exaggeration..... my hearing was so bad it was 'off the (bottom of the) chart'.......

& I'm already at 'target' hearing levels & bordering on 'normal'.

Eric mate I've not heard birds nor clocks ticking in.... 15..? 20...? years......

& today I heard my WATCH ticking!!

IT.... IS..... LIFE-CHANGING!!

Now you know whats going to happen - yep, it is life-changing, you are going to hear every word your wife is going to throw at you....

Not so exciting now is it...?

J/k ;-)

Happy for you Dan, I can't even begin to imagine what total hearing loss or even partial hearing loss would be like. I do have tinitus, but nothing compared to what you have been through. It must be great to hear the watch ticking! So glad you are better now!

(& Eric mate when you're right my friend you're right!!
