So I received a package from George at Govberg jewelers today! I apologize for the quality of the pics...maybe a new camera is the next purchase! :)

Thanks to George and Justin for helping my collection take a big leap! :)

Nice!! Let me ask you a question. Does getting 2 watches at one time take away from the initial enjoyment of either? I don't know ... maybe I'm just jealous!
:lingsrock:

Congrats

Very nice Andy and big leap indeed. I guess you had double the pleasure 8)

Glad you could get a Steelfish before it's discontinued. Actually, you're double lucky because two of your trio are.

Enjoy them.

Look quickly - they are discontinued and going fast. I know two local ADs that each have one blue dial in stock. I'm told that BUSA is completely out of black dials and replacements are not expected. :cry: :cry: :cry:

I know the Steelfish isn't new 'news', but I was wondering: why would they discontinue such a popular model?

As to the OP - great choices and congrats! Two in one day, wow! :bow:
