Wait a minute. The 14060m that you bought back after selling it and finding it and now selling it again?!?! As I recall in that thread you were gonna keep it forever...

You have some great watches but that is my favourite (apart from the LV of course!)

I love the GMT and you've got a great model...I'm so jealous
