Please do!

Like I said, I'm trying to save up some watch funds, so I really shouldn't be making impulsive buys.

I’ve had eBay orders cancelled before so I’m not holding my breath- the seller hadn’t spelt Bellon correctly so that’s why it didn’t appear on my eBay searches- found it by mistake!!

Oh dear I missed message #61 and apparently only read half of message #62 before I wrote my response. Ugh [mention]WPybus[/mention] - you are so kind (was it the rum talking?  okay if it was).  [mention]ManOnTime[/mention] - if it's available, take it please! I was only joking about saving up - I wrote my message quickly and didn't include a wink. I will not consider it a loss at all, only a gain knowing that if [mention]WPybus[/mention] keeps it or you have it - it will have a good home.

I did consider buying this one (or the other one with the interesting small seconds) but I wasn't sure if it'd fit and I kept going back and forth until they were all gone (maybe that's why I am single LOL).  I guess being able to have it at a discount would minimize the risk, but I will only take it if [mention]WPybus[/mention] decides to sell it and if [mention]ManOnTime[/mention] doesn't want it.  Either way, happy that a watch has brought joy and excitement to us all.

You have nothing to apologize for. I wasn't offended by your comment, I was just wondering how you knew I am trying to to save for a "big" watch purchase. 😆

If [mention]WPybus[/mention] does sell, I will be passing .for that very reason.

Great to see this watch is being recognised, I keep reading on t’internet about the big boys of the watch world moving towards sustainability but they will have a way to go to beat this project! I wonder what his next watch will be, I’m guessing a skin diver!!

Haha @WPybus a skin diver I can see that, I guess it's not such a leap from the current design, but a compression case @TheJohnP that would involve more work but an interesting direction for sure!!!
