    Thanks! It checks all the boxes for me: classic movement, sporty enough, dressy enough, more than big enough at 40mm across, rarissimo and SHINY.

    Still wearing this one, probably will through the weekend, at least...

    For a manual-wind, timekeeping is exemplary (about +1 sec/day). It seems odd for a watch with subseconds chapter to have a hacking feature, but there it is! These come standard on a Horween shell cordovan strap, by the way.

    Don't worry Kyle. I know where you live too and I'm closer. You just have to fend him off for 1.5 hours until I can get there.

    Of course that means you'll have to give me visitation rights to the 2499 for assisting. :D


    Going with the '65 JLC caliber 800C on Saturday - with matching attire.

    Or I can commandeer his collection while he's trying to grab yours since I have his address. Sell two of his Rolexes and buy another 2499, then we split the rest.
