    Yes, it's time to go hunting! We're in the shortest of watch seasons right now - the "Christmas in July" summer migration. Bagged some small game for the Project Watch division in the last couple days. I know that one or two of you came across the pond into NYC last weekend to grab some Speedmaster goodness too.

    How's everyone else doing?

    Nice daily wear 30.10 bumper from Alpha, Bergeon spring bar tool and 2 gators on the way from Kelaran.
    Looks like Kelaran is having the Christmas in July.
    Hot for 16mm ss and gold big logo buckles.

    Managed to snag a Reverso (with Warren's advice). Then fixed a new customized ostrich Camille Fournet strap. Very happy with watch, and with the superb service from CF :thumbsup:

    Slow here, I was yesterday at a local watch fair, but came back completely empty handed as the trade watch I had with me, a 1955 Navitimer, decided that it was a good time for the chronograph to fail :mad:. It was all working perfectly the day before....so I couldn't even manage to get a shot off!

    It looks really clean - good work :thumbsup:

    My recent activity has been mostly "big game": securing a Blue faced Reverso UltraThin Duo & a couple of Speedy LE's (Apollo Mission patch and 18k WG Moonphase). Although I have also picked up a Grand Prix dial Dynamic, a 1479 bracelet and am currently tracking a funky little 70's tiddler :)

    Haven't picked up anything in quite some time, spent most of my watch fund on camera gear and a new retina macbook recently.
