wheaton26 Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 hello rwg. just sharing my excitement with my latest and greatest purchase to date. i was expecting to pick up my new 312 from my local ad tomorrow, but listen to this for service! today starts like any other weekday for me. i drop my oldest son to school and head into town. this week's been very quiet as my partner is on vacation, so it's just me at the office. at about 10:00 i get a call from my good friend at my local ad. he asks me if i'm going to be there for the next little while. i say yes, and that's about it as it's not uncommon for him to stop in and say hello. a half hour later i see my buddy at the door with a brown cardboard box and a smile. he's never looked better. lol. it was a beautiful day in the bahamas so instead of opening it up inside, we laid it out on the hood of my car and unveiled it there. i've been looking at this model for some time now and it met all expectations. vintage meets modern is the best way i can explain it. anyway, big props to my friend and local ad as they've always been very good to me over the years. thanks for listening and please see below the obligatory wrist shot. all the best!

krpster Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 A real beauty! Nice to get such personalized service but it probably helps that your buddy works at the AD. Great day for sure.
plaifender Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 awesome! although, I would've liked to see some pictures of it under the beautiful bahama sun!

Eton Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Congrats C! That's a great story and it looks fantastic! Enjoy and wear it well!
Justasgood Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Well, That is a pretty good rep. Can't tell about the dial without some close-ups. I would suggest updating the CG and add a Palp crow. But hey, they're just reps right.........enjoy it for what it is. Of course, I could be wrong......:-)

blue_sphere Posted November 23, 2010 Report Posted November 23, 2010 I have been waiting for a year now for them to make a rep. Ever since it was first released I was IN LOVE with this watch. I still have the artwork for a custom dial I want to put on it . GORGEOUS WATCH man. I envy you so much right now!
