I love every single one of my watches, and I´ve got excited every time I was waiting to purchase them or receive them.

Enjoy it, it's a beautiful piece of work. I'm sure it won't disappoint you.

Imagine what I'm like when a new watch is a coming!

And if it were a White World.....I'd need a sedative

It's not strange at all to be this excited about something that will make you happy. I go through the same thing every time.

The only time I think it can go overboard is when you lose sleep over it. I try to not have anything get in the way of a good night's rest. Nonetheless, it happens sometimes. :oops:

I LOVE MY NAVITIMER WORLD!!!! This is by far my favorite watch, I will post pics this weekend. I also have a question about the GMT function. How do the numbers (ex. -10, +11)on the backside of the case coorelate to the numbers on the dial? Maybe a stupid question....sorry :oops:

These engravings on the casback are just time zones of "the world's great cities"

Oh. Do they coorelate to the dial face. Like -9 would mean what on the dial?

They are in reference to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). GMT is current 2:25 am (thereabouts). If you look at New York on the back of the watch it should read (-5). This means that New York City is 5 hours "behind" GMT, meaning it is 9:25 pm.

This is to allow you to more easily set the second hour hand on the watch to a second time zone.

Ahhhh! Thats what it means. Thanks! I was kind of worried about the White face World looking too big on my sissy small wrists, but I like the fact that its big on me. Gives it that extra "bling" :roll: factor .This is my second Ling in 2 weeks. Last week was the Bentley GT and im rounding off quite the collection. Is it just me or does no other watch excite you like a new shiny BREITLING? :lingsrock:

No problem. I've been lusting after a Navitimer World for some time so this is close to me heart. :wink:

Congrats and post some pics!
