My long wait to get my white dial Skyracer back form service is over - and I had forgotten how much I like the white dial on that watch. Especially on the ProII. BUSA delivered a brand new looking/working watch. Then to top it off, #12 LE2, engraved "Sharkman" arrived today as well. Just as nice as # 13 but with an english date wheel. Seems redundent to take pics. And the AD still offering obscene Omega reductions, my eye cuaght the 45mm PO, black bezel, orange numbers plus batons and the buttery soft rubber strap with orange contrast stitching. What was I supposed to do at $2500 out the door???? Had to have them hold it for a couple weeks. In serious watch sensory overload right now. Yep, damn good day. |

Lucky man I'm still waiting on my Seawolf to be returned from BUK, but looking like it may have to go straight into the sales forum! Out of interest has your AD offering silly Omega prices got a PO liquid metal instock ? |

Congrats sharkman, and may I commend you on your choice of PO - exactly the same one I've got, and as I've said here a couple of times, it is the watch I am least likely to sell. |

Shark...your photography skills have greatly improved!! Love the white skyracer! Your Steinhart looks good on that strap, that's the first combo i've seen that I REALLY like. Congrats. My day wasn't as good as yours BUT I had an OK week. A few new additions is always is a fun time. |

I also had a great day. George called me right as I was leaving work. He got an unexpected package from Oris about 5 weeks earlier than we thought. Its probably not anything to get some of you that excited, however I am very excited to get something completely different than anything else in my collection right now. Oris Artelier Skeleton on brown strap. I told him to hold it for a while as I am way too busy right now to enjoy it. I think I will be calling him in about 2-3 weeks. This is the picture that finally made me decide I needed to have it. Pure beauty. Borrowed picture of course. http://leblogdesmontres.fr/wp-content/u ... eleton.jpg |

This thread is so much better with photos  Nice contrasts between the two and like the detail of the Steinhart clasp on the strap. Ian |

That Skyracer is pretty sick looking. Never spent more than a minute looking at it, but I may have to change course on that |

Ie , if sharkman got all those watches within 1 month from each other , then the overall satisfaction would last longer . p.s. Hope my english makes sense .
