Love the ceramic bezel!

Great GMT

spuds · 24 January 2010, 11:01 PM

Pete mate I missed this yesterday!!

I only sussed you'd got another when I read your post saying "My two" in the "What's your grail?" thread.....

Sincere Congratulations!!

Superb!!....

& just the pair I'm thinking of too!
(except maybe the DJII in Rhodium/Blue Arabice or Black/White Batons?).

Seriously mate I'm chuffed for you.....

Very nice--congrats

esm · 25 January 2010, 06:13 AM

ah.... I knew it had to be a GMTIIC because of the PCL, otherwise i'd have@guessed LV.

the number of threads you made about the SS GMTIIC and the LV recently was enough for most of us pick the GMTIIC.

nice looking thing. Wear it well. The PCL is certainly an attractive upgrade. Good luck keeping it scratch free.... ;-)

baseballduck · 25 January 2010, 06:16 AM

Congrats! Wear it in good health.

Eric,
The PCL's wont be a problem because im REALLY carefull and want them to stay bright and shiny... I wear a real beater (cost 7 euros!!) to work, otherwise it would be quickly ruined...

Dan,
The DJII in black/white batons is a stunner...I almost bought it...went with the white dial because it was the one that got me to go to the AD in the first place.. didnt want to waiver on my intuitions....I have not yet seen the Rhod/Blue but im sure its great too.

esm · 25 January 2010, 07:28 AM

Pete, what I have experienced with the PCL is that it can get fine scratches when wearing long sleeve clothes. Thats what I have on my GV and the DJII so far. No problems on the LV since there is no PCL on it.

But once you get a few, you will get used to it.

Same here, I have a £7.50 casio digital for work :-)

JBat · 25 January 2010, 07:47 AM

It really is a beautiful watch. Wear it in good health, Pete.

Are you saying that your shirt causes scratches???? Dont you use fabric softener??? Do you use starch??? Seems unlikely that soft fabric causes scratches...but i guess if you say it does then it can.......
thanks for the tip.

Yup, that happened to me too. Desk diving will really hammer the clasp and 12 o'clock side of the bracelet. After cleaning mine up with a Cap Cod cloth, I'm going to try to be more careful with it.

esm · 25 January 2010, 08:15 AM

pete, not only shirts, as well as jumpers, coats/jackets.

Those battle scares will add character to the watch

DarkHorse · 25 January 2010, 12:14 PM

I'm disappointed... I thought you found Jimmy Hoffa underneath that cloth.

Oh well, the search continues...
