Thanks guys

Really appreciate all the good wishes.... I think I will have that smiley face all us WIS' know all too well........ for quite some time to come

It really is quite a beast but also nicely understated and, other than the weight which only the wearer would be aware of, it will probably go completely under the radar of most people. Obviously those in the know, like all of us, would recognise the blue face, but its very wearable and probably quite a bit lower key than my TT GMTIIc.

Just need to continue peeling and wip a link or so out to fit and I will be all stations go

Thx Dino. Thx Thomas, Yes that smile is a real give away to all of us.......everybody else just thinks we're a little odd - smirking away for no apparent reason and glancing at our wrists a bit too often for comfort. And I'm off to work on the tube tomorrow.......so I'll be the suited one grinning away uncontrolably whilst eyes fixated on my left wrist

But it's nice to be understood...... Who needs watch addiction therapy when we've got TRF
