You have to keep your eye on the discount counter to get the "steals"............many of the higher priced watches end up there as:
1) they are a little pricey for the "typical" TJ crowd, and
2) the "typical" TJ crowd tends to go for "designer" names like Tommy Bahama and kenneth Cole.
WOW Ken, Sounds like you're describing the same TJM that I shop at.
It's the one evryone shops at!!!!!smile8.gif Including ME!!!! Did you get that Hammie back yet?
Yes I did. I reluctantly sent it back after about a week. The large second hand (chrono second hand) "stuttered" as it made it's rounds. I tried to ignore it, but couldn't. I called Hamilton, they issued a FEDEX (something or other) and Fedex picked it up last Friday. I probably should have kept it, because it was such a minor "stutter" but since I have two other watches with the Valjoux 7750 movement, I had something to compare it to. Well anyway back it went. They had it regulated very well, too. Hope it's as accurate when I get it back. I like it a lot, with the SS bracelet attached. I just hope I won't regret sending it back. I keep having Invicta repair flashbacks. I hate to say it but I would be hard pressed to tell you that there was much difference between Invicta repair and the Hamilton repair in NJ. Lots of similarities in "ball dropping".
Back on the TJM thing. I have been to three different TJ's lately, on several occassions. I can't find another Hammie anywhere. I was beginning to think that they weren't carrying them anymore.
