I am not really sure what everyone is all bent out of shape about...if you know Sam, you know that we still have anywhere between 8-20 hours left before the unveil is complete:)

My apologies ladies and gents, I was busy in the Audemar Piguet sub-forum congratulating my mortgage broker Adam (mortgageguy) on his latest acquisition (https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=226349). Charles definitely has me figured out ;-)

I definitely know who to call if I wind up on one of those games shows and a horology question comes up! Great detective work sir!

Without further ado!

I have to thank Oscar first and foremost for making this a seamless transaction! I have met him in Florida in the past and consider him a good friend in this horology game! His shipping is always meticulous and any one that has dealt with him knows that he will text you at all hours of the night! I have always had my eye on this one and when Oscar offered it I had to acquire it. Thanks to all who have viewed my thread! Until the next time!
