Guess what - my Steelfish arrived today! :D The only remaining concern I have is that a whopping great customs bill will follow in a few days. :? I seriously hope not.

However the watch is superb! Bizarrely this is actually my 3rd Steelfish - I had a first gen 42mm model, then a black dial 44mm, and now this silver dial 44mm - and I have to say this one is my favourite. I've said before that I think the black is probably the most classic from a divers watch perspective, but the silver with this case size just looks great! I'm really pleased.

I've not had time to even size it yet, so none of my charcteristically poor photographs are available yet, but I will post some as soon as I get the chance.

Thanks for everyone's kind words while I was fretting about it potentially being stuck in customs hell for weeks on end!

Glad you actually have it now. Not sure what the customs position is - I paid mine to FeDex over the 'phone as I thought they wouldn't release it otherwise. Then got a paper bill about a week later (which I ignored of course).

Time will tell - we wait for the final outcome.
