Thanks guys, time is going so slow!!!

Ricardo, that is a great story behind that watch and it seems like amazing value!

Fear, yes if I have to wait then so do you! I will say that it is a 43mm rose gold case.

That thing is stunning.

Altair, I'm assuming a medium sized luxury BMW is much more reasonably priced in your part of the world. Over here, you could get the IWC and the JLC for what the BMW costs, with money left over.

Same here.

At least I can live vicariously through all the great watches posted here.

I hope your 3 weeks flies by quickly. Now that I have 3 little boys, 3 weeks is equivalent to how 3 days felt before kids. :D

Well yes actually, no taxes has some advantages. An entry level 5 series costs about 60K USD around here.
