Itch has been scratched

Well, finally my itch has been scratched - now locked away in the safe until my anniversary.

For the record, didn't buy because it was popular or in demand, I actually like everything about it....



Happy days indeed.

Nice one mate. Great watch.

Out of curiosity, since I'm on the hunt for the same, did you buy grey or from AD? If the latter how long were you waiting?

AD, always, I'm a bit weird that way. Genuinely couldn't say how long, but long enough that I feared I would make an impulsive buy on something else.

Congratulations on a great pick-up. I hope your anniversary comes quickly.

I recently purchased the same watch and love everything about it, not reason to purchase if you don't like it.
