Yes it worked out to about what one costs at an AD here in Canada....if u can find one.
So it was worth it to me for sure.
If I would of had to buy my flights it would be a different story I guess.

Wow, used to do that...round trip, same day (often same plane) but that was to pick-up my son. But only to/from FL. One heck of a trip to grab a watch! Congrats!

OP- I get it. I almost did the same thing in my dark days when I wanted this same watch and it seemed like no local AD could get it. I almost jumped on a plane and flew up one country to Canada after I located one there. But thankfully, my trusty local AD called me just in time with the good news.

I hope you enjoy yours as much as I am enjoying mine!

Loving the watch.
Just watching the F1 pre-show in front of a nice fire.
