Incoming...finally!!!

Dearest fellow members and AP Lovers,

AGKNYC here...the same guy who was terribly indecisive about which watch to get, where to get it, when to get it...and whether to get it in general! I am 30 years old and this will be the first watch I would have ever purchased on my own, with my own hard earned money. The decision was also very difficult because I have a new born baby at home, I started a new job in NYC and buying this bad boy made me feel somewhat bad....especially since I am wearing the nicest watch in the building, let alone on my flood (President and CEO included). As you can tell from the pic, it's still literally incoming so pics and wrist shot and update tomorrow.

But before I sign off, I would like to thank each and every one of you for your hospitality and for being very helpful in this process. It is a rarity to find such class and genuine support on forums.

And here it is!

My wife just couldn't wait for me to get home!!! WOMEN!!? Can't live with em, cant live without em'. In all fairness, her theory was correct, the RIGHTFUL owner should put it on FIRST, and then, I can wear it until he wants it back. THANK YOU TO THANH AKA TAKUYA FOR ALL OF HIS PROFFESIONALISM AND WORRY FREE TRANSACTION!

Next stop, Lebron.
