Here ya go Jon!! The latest family member to arrive via express mail!! WM DRSD:

This hobby is really addicting . . . I've been seriously considering that same watch. The price is right too! Joe, did you do the relume? Is that a service you offer also? Btw, regular walks and occasional jogs helps dampen the frequency of asthma attacks for me. And, perhaps seing a doctor specializing in asthma issues. Enjoy the holiday weekend Joe. And, take care of yourself man.

Thanks Subfrog.

I was expecting it to arrive yesterday. It is going cross country though, so perhaps today.

A beautiful day for family pics: And, a couple new arrivals to the family expected tomorrow . . .

Virgil Hilts. Something with you and misaligned 30-minute subdial hands!!!

Virgil Hilts, I spent several hours yesterday investigating the various pieces necessary to build this same watch. I think the fun is in the hunt, and I'm hooked. The Jimbo (EE?) 6263 only wet my appetite. I may be doing some selling to fund the project.

I know how you feel Joe. I'm always carrying my albuterol with me, especially in the spring due to allergy-triggered attacks. Take care of yourself Joe.

Wow.

Black face should have silver hands. White face should have black hands.

Beautiful watch. And, it's perfect for the 25th of every month.

The 24-hour hand is slightly thick, but still thinner than the previous generation rep. And, has the correct hand stack. Nice watch.

The weekend ass check . . . LOL

Nice talking to you the other night, btw.

Goodness Joe, you love that watch!!!

I r e a l l y like the TT GMT font.

Should the rehaut be deep like the date versions? Also, the 187 is out of stock. I'm waiting for an answer from silix on next availability.

There are two models (186 and 187) at silix that I'm looking at. Both have the 'painted' markers, but the 186 doesn't have the red triangle around the bezel dot. 187 does have the red triangle, but is not in stock. Is the red triangle 'important'? Here is ROL186 at silix: Here is ROL187 at silix:

Genuine below?

Are the markers supposed to have the silver ring??

Yes, very funny. I learned the hard way that "EL" was referring to the movement and NOT the dealer. Gorgeous watch.

Beautiful.
