Is Santa Claus delivering any watches this year?
Re: Is Santa Claus delivering any watches this year?
For me, probably not. My wife tolerates but does not like to feed the junkie....

Not here. My only contact with watches will be strapping on my C60 GMT, locking the rest away safely and heading for somewhere a bit warmer.

The half minute which we daily devote to the winding-up of our watches is an exertion of labour almost insensible; yet, by the aid of a few wheels, its effect is spread over the whole twenty-four hours.

Re: Is Santa Claus delivering any watches this year?
It’s so hard to make preowned purchase opportunities pop up in coordination with Christmas. 
Coincidentally though, there may be a Kickstarter watch or two that will arrive before then ... due to production delays.

I think seeing some of your collection up for sale will give lots of people Christmas cheer!Bahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Wed Dec 05, 2018 8:11 pmI'm hoping a (kickstarter) Valhalla of Norway Deep Fjord will be with me in time for Christmas, along with a Vratislavia Conceptum Arctowski. Both ordered some months back.
Then there is an Elliot Brown Halton ordered which also, hopefully, will be with me by Christmas.
Plus, when I can find time, there'll be some of my current collection appearing in the Sales Corner.

Paul, he’s real, but when the Chief Elf popped in with his clipboard at the Mods Meeting you were placed on the naughty list.

Re: Is Santa Claus delivering any watches this year?
Still no sign of the bracelet...
But I made the mistake of visiting the Seiko outlet store on Friday; 50% off lots of shiny things, so I’ve now got something for under the tree
