That's how nice the watch is, compels comment from even the most taciturn.

Something was bothering me. So i tossed and turned for about three hours, then i finally can't take it anymore, i stood up and went straight to my room where she's sleeping. I approached the bed, gently sat on it and i reached for her shoulder to pull her closer to me. She stirred and woke up. She asked what's up. I told her, you know, the first time i saw you, i was reading thread it got so long i left m ipad on auto-scroll so as it would advance to the end, and then got up to get my self a sandwich then went to the store to get some mayo then i got distracted by life that i forgot to look at it again to see how it ended. She said, you know what, i've been wondering about a weird light from inside your night drawer. So we opened that drawer, and lo and behold, there's my ipad still on this thread and still automatically scrolling in search of the end this crazy long thread that with each new post, seems to leave us far more confused about what will happen then the post before it!!!

As stated, I went through the Professional price list (except the Daytonas), and all models on the website are represented in the price list with the exception of the BLNR and LN GMTs.

It’s discontinued spoke to Ad
There focus is on supply for the new GMT realeses he said once the final shipments are made it will disappear from website
That’s why it’s not in print as they won’t reprint brochures when watches discontinue
