New to the family w/ GMT iiC!

Hi All,

Finally made the plunge and got the GMT iiC. Love the feel and the new bolder looks. To me, it's a classic design with heritage and the ability to withstand the test of time. Now for the obligitory pics..







Also, had a great AD experience. They offer lifetime refinishing on the watch which is a cool service.

lifetime refinishing? You mean they will polish your watch for free everytime you send it in for servicing?

I can get a refinishing once a year maximum with or without the servicing. I thought that was a nice touch. I wouldn't do it that often as they told me that the watch has the durability for 12 finishings max.

Congrats on joining the club. One word of warning: you may find it impossible to remove from your wrist, once you start wearing it regularly. I just can't shake mine loose!
