Hey Chris

(another silly question)
In what forms are payment allowed to be made?

Canadian tire money?
Bonus bucks?
Monopoly money?
Esso points?

Or that pre-historic money order, credit card, cash stuff?

James / Chris,

I seem to recall something about two bands being included. Will there be extra “red stitched” bands available in case I wear the original out?

Thanks again for all the good work. Can’t wait!

Denny,

Chris will be able to give a definitive answer on this but I am suspecting that you will be able to get extras of either band... Not sure the cost or normal availability, but just guessing that Chris will be able to get you either... You will have two from the beginning but they won't be alike (one with red stitching and the other with the standard white stitching of the Laco band).

Thanks for the inquiry and I hope we get to see the REAL DEAL THIS WEEK! Fingers crossed!

Denny,
Thanks for the kind words
There will be extra bands available. However I haven't ordered them yet. But it shouldn't take long to get them, since they have the die now for this custom strap.
I was told if I wanted more it would take 2 weeks, and that's from Europe

Just a quick update before I get on a plane.

If the watch shows up between tomorrow and Friday I will not be in town to photograph it. But I will try to have someone photograph it at the shop and email it to me, then I can forward it to James (I don't have a laptop) and he can upload them here.
I am not sure the hotel has computers, if they do I will post the pics.

What a time to go out of town!!! Oy.
I almost forgot about this trip, I have been really tied up at work lately.

Chris was out of town the last half of this past week, so even if it showed up he would not have seen it or been able to photograph it... hoping it showed up though...these damn Germans have been dragging A$$ long enough on this project, especially since they already have Chris's money!

It only took the 944 guys a week to get their Casio from Tokyo. What gives?

Jim,

You know those Germans! They always over engineer stuff, so I chalk it up to that!
