I just got back from a Vacation with my wife.
The watch didn't show up

I am trying to find out why, I should know within a day or two what the hold up was.

This is exactly why I didn't want ANY money from ANYONE!

The watch will be worth the wait

Jakkq,

Welcome to the thread! Go back a few pages and pick a serial number and get on vtc4198's (Chris) list!

These are not cheap watches though! These are AMAZING watches actually and for those who sign up to get them here...a real bargain at $595! If you are not in on the first round they are going to be $725!

I have faith in my German friends

I have yet to see a watch come out of that factory that I didn't like.

And I have yet to own a car from our friends in Germany that I didn't like

I'm pretty sure about this one

Get ready boys

I hate waiting more than anyone!
