So yesterday I got a real nice surprise from the UPS man. Didn't know what it could be when I saw the truck pull up because I wasn't expecting anything to arrive. But then I saw it.......... The Book.

Woohoo!!!! Only snapped one quick picture of it when it arrived. :lingsrock:


*Update:

Extra surprise when I got home last night. Another box.............

Very nice. Did you recently buy a watch with the B01 movement? I understand they are sending the books to folks who bought watches with that movement. I had to get my book "used" on the 'bay... :?

It's a great book, but I haven't even had a chance to look at my copy since I got it about a month ago.

@46crew - yup, Got the Chronomat B01 recently.

@jnelson3097 - Yeah it's nice, really like the look of the silver edged pages. I opened it and glanced through it real quick Great coffee table book. Also, thanks for the referral to George he was great to work with!

Guess you get two "surprises" with the B01 purchase.
