Good to hear that all went well.

Have an enjoyable away weekend.

Having met him, I can vouch for HvS being a great guy too.

Glad you had a great time: c11s in evidence! Is the news that there will be a Mk 2 C11, hence the sale?

Oh, I get it. You only had to keep the secret for 19 minutes!

Presumably they were looking at the 2013 FLE - I suspect it has landed ref. other threads on here - but nothing can be said yet...

...probably because the dial has be made in pink by mistake :D

disclaimer - I have no idea, but seems the logical reason... asn as ept55 has kindly denied one guess, we can assume that absence of denial of this is confirmation :)

So how was your trip to town today?
Did you wear the vintage as per photo?
Did you drop in and buy a Calatrava in Bond St? :-? :?

Yes I did wear the C11 Vintage while traipsing all over New Bond St and Oxford St trying to find an AD that had this in stock.

Without success I might add , I might go to WoS in Manchester and see if they have or can source one.
But on the plus side I did see some very nice watches I nearly got talked into buying an Omega Day Date but with my inner voice reminding me I'd just bought 3 new CWLs I walked away from temptation. :D

I really fancied a blue day date speedmaster but it was recently discontinued.
Did you keep looking down smugly at your new 'wrist candy'?
