Incoming!! ...and a little back story

Hey all! Well, I am proud to say INCOMING!!!!

For the members that may of remembered me in the past, I had a this watch and absolutely loved it!! I financed in "in-house" with an AD, then about 3 weeks later, they emailed me and told me that their bank was not letting them finance in house anymore, and told me I either had to pay for it all right then or return it. After a bit of being pretty pissed, I finally returned it because I just didn't have the funds to pay it off and them back-peddling really left a bad taste in my mouth, I just didn't trust them any longer.

That was about a year and a half ago.. Move forward to a couple months ago, I went into a new AD, talked to them, told them how much I really love the TT sub but I just couldn't afford to fork out ~$13,400... To my amazement, he said no problem, we will hold it for you at our negotiated price (which was pretty good), then when I pay it off then its mine. So, saved my pennies and dimes for a few months, and low and behold, this came in today!

That's exactly what I did with my TT Sub with my AD, they held it for me until paid off no interest etc.

Great watch, congrats!!

What if it was completely banged up because you climbed the K2, went diving for 1 month straight and did some gardening.

They would still take the watch back?
