Thanks!

These 2 came in yesterday. Grand total of $250.54 with the ebay pickagift code + $50 off 300. I'll probably keep one, not sure which. The chewed up numbers on the chrono are bothering me more than i would have thought.

That's how I roll. I always set a quartz to the timezone it's going to. 8-)

I see you immediately took it off the pretty crappy bracelet. :lol:

I was very happy though that the lugs measured at 20mm and not 21.33mm or some such nonsense.

Had one. Flipped it. Still regret it. A lot. This watch is just gorgeous. Only way to describe it.

Edit: Didn't even see who's watch this was. Sorry [mention]whoagorgeous[/mention] guess you have the description under control.

Not too impressed by Ebay Global Shipping.
This arrived in Atlanta on 11/13 and they finally handed it off to USPS today for delivery.

Managed to snag one from the Citizen store. Fit and finish is really nice, and the orange seconds hand pops really nicely. Not sure i'll be keeping it though.

Looks great! What don’t you like about it?

I’d personally try it on an olive nato.

A bit too big for my wrist :lol: Also, the leather strap that comes with it was clearly meant for an MoT sized wrist.

Taking off the film and inspecting it more, the finish really is quite nice.
