I found THIS on my desk this morning...

I came in to office about 9am and found THIS BOX from DHL sitting on my chair...

OK, this looks good! Something bubble wrapped, a couple of signature green booklets and a BIG cream colored box (not white like my others), ...

DAMN, the box is empty Maybe there's something in the bubble-wrap (which I thought was just some swag....)

I had a very happy day at work today. I'll post better pics and initial impressions soon.
Thanks to all those who replied to my post a few days ago, "feeling blue, what do I do?" As you can see, I figured out my dilemma


PS. I really just did this so I had something to match this years new BLUE avatar name... thanks a lot Steve for picking blue as the new colour! Last time you used GREEN and I ended up with a GMT IIc... wonder what colour you'll pick next?

Great looking watch. I had a hard time deciding this and the LVc, went for the LVc but I told myself I will get this one eventually.

Congats and enjoy!
