Yep. I was going to warn you that you need a tool to knock the pins out and replace them, but the watchmaker will have it.
I do have a bracelet link remover tool that I've used before, but I think I'll let my WM do it on this most precious one!

I need to take the Speedy in for a hand replacement anyway...

HEaded out!

I was a little slow in responding to the FS post.

Just now back from the WM for a 'professional sizing' 馃槻....

I realize right now it's 'snug', so when the weather warms, I may need to go up a 'half-link' ... 馃憤

It was fun showing it off the the 'crew' at the WM shop... if my phone hadn't gone dead, I would have pics of them going 'ga-ga'...馃槣

And, speaking of Ga-Ga, the watchmaker's daughter has 'Lady Gaga' beat hands down! Pics next time..馃榿

You know what I haven't seen in quite a while is an Elite Mango. Seems like there used to be more than a few around on the 'bay, but its been ages since I've seen one.

Sure! I don't think there was a dibs on the FS listing already, was there? If not, it's yours in ~2.5 years!

What's an "Elite Mango"? Is there such a thing as a "Pedestrian Mango"?
Congrats @dougiedude, it looks really good on your wrist....

Just double checked.... @efauser called dibs. So dibs to him if he takes it off your hands
