42.7 mm, amazing rubber strap with two large signed titanium links, titanium case back, awsome movement UN26 (base ETA2892), 12mm ht., saphire crystal with antiglare coating. water resistant to 300 meters, hours, min., sub seconds, power reserve display, magnified date, and officially certified chronometer.

One of my favorite models!

What shop did you get it at, what side of the Island?

Okay, did they give you a deal?

What cruiseline?
How were the crowds at Ports?

Great catch.

princess cruiseline, store called Trident jewels & time, address is 9/lb main st. st. thomas, Virgin Islands 00801, dealt with a really knowledgeable guy (not pushy at all) his name is Manoj, if anyone needs the phone # or email let me know.  They also own several other stores under different names, such as Little Europe.  They had the most unbelievable selection on the part of the island that i was in (uptown).  Lots of Oris, Glycine, Anonimo, Ulysse Nardin, Roger Dubois, they are authorized dealers for many others as well.  A friend of mine purchase a UN from them a year back and was also very happy.  32% off retail, tax free, I dont think I would have gotten a better deal at any Authorized dealers anywhere except maybe on ebay but i wouldnt make such an expensive purchase on the bay without trying it on and seeing it first.

by the way thanks for all the kind words guys, i will definitely wear it every day for a while.  Also heres my attempt at a lume shot:
