    As of this morning, I'm now a fully paid up member of the Moonwatch Club.. :)

    I must say, when the courier turned up with this HUGE package, I thought it was something else entirely. :( Although it could be argued that the packaging is a bit OTT, it was the best unboxing I can remember since I was a kid. Like Christmas. Strange as it might sound, I've never actually held a Speedy Pro before, and only ever seen one, years ago, in the "metal". To say I'm absolutely thrilled would be an understatement... ::love::

    Congrats, and welcome to the club!! You chose wisely - one of the most versatile watches made, and gorgeous too. Wear it in great health!

    If you ever find yourself in a disabled lunar craft and need to time your reentry burn manually, you now have the gear. Just ask Jim Lovell. :)

    Great watch!

    I hear you on the box though... I got a JL Master Ultra Thin Moonphase a few months ago and the box is silly. A thin watch with a fat box... finding storage for my watch boxes is becoming problematic!

    Seriously! I had a box for my watch boxes, then I got the speedy pro .005 and my strategy failed.
