Can I please see some pics of....
...the new SS GMT? I have one landing tomorrow, and would love to see some pics. The old schoolers here know my past with Rolex, but I think they hit a homerun with this one, except for the polished center links.
I initially only got this because my AD put me on the list without me knowing and then gave me a good price. Already have another watch in mind for a trade, but may give it a week test run. Chances are it will hit the road since the market is hot, but c'mon Mike and others, here is a chance to change my mind. :-) :-) TIA.

Just make sure you don't flip it like the LV within a matter of weeks.
If you're coming back up to Dallas, drop me a line and maybe we can meet up. |

Hey Daren: I too was on a list for a watch that I had no tremendous interest in. Got the call and the rest is history. There is something special about this watch. Like I said before... it sold itself.
Good luck either way but give it a chance. |

Ok, you guys are making me want to get one! I a;ready turned one down. Got a phone call from my AD when they got thier forst one in. I said no. I guess I felt that if I really did not want one I should not get it and let somebody that really wants it enjoy it. I might not turn down the next one, though I think I will wait to see if I can one at a discount. Once the hype dies down.
Sterling, I have to admit I like the NATO strap. Not generally speaking, but it looks good on the GMT. |

I went swimming with it today, and in the water, as much as I hate to say it, I like the bracelet better. The thing is, when the strap is wet, when the watch shifts to one side of the wrist or the other, it just kinda stays there. I have to use my other hand to get it to sit back correctly. No biggie, everything can't be perfect.

Good for you Daren. You really got a discount on the new model? If so, that's the first of heard of that.
