Well, I probably won't get it until later this year. I just don't have quite the finances yet. Just sold two watches, but they are to pay for my AT8500. What a habit, eh?!!!

Yes, it will have to be the Boutique, as the Z-33 is a Boutique only model. Besides, I have spent so much time there, chatting and trying on watches.....another story.

I am really looking forward to it. Even surprised myself, as I prefer smaller watches. I guess that's in general. I have seen a couple of stunning models around that are actually 49mm or 50mm (not the Railmaster xxl, though), and they have manual wind pocket watch movements in them. They need to be as big as they are to accomodate the movement, so for some reason that doesn't bother me.

I can't wait to get it on my wrist, and take some pics of it. Should really be a fun watch for pics!

Cheers,
Carl

Hey, sounds good. I'm in East Vancouver on Victoria Drive, couple of blocks off Commercial. How about you?

Cheers,
