So nice. So what made you decide on the 18038 and not the other ones like the 18238 or 118238?

The DD with Roman numerals has been my grail since I was a teen as well.

Congrats! Awesome looking vintage DD! I wanted to check out Paul Duggan's shop so badly when I was in Boston earlier this year, but they were closed the entire July 4th weekend.

Also in regards to its condition, this thing is practically immaculate. The bracelet stretch on it really isn't bad at all, which leads me to believe that this watch probably sat in a safe for most of it's life. I've seen pictures of some really awful stretch before. That was actually the first thing I asked before I went down to the shop, for them to text me a picture of the bracelet hanging like in this picture (which I took myself after I got home). I feel like I really lucked out today. Here's a picture of the stretch, what do you guys think about its condition?
