As I mentioned in the Wishlist thread, I bought an O&W M6 back in March. Unfortunately the vendor wasn't able to get the sapphire/no cyclops version and refunded my money. I wanted a GMT to replace my broken Alpha and I didn't want another Chinese watch. I already have quartz (Zodiac V-Series) and Russian (VE Rocket) GMTs. I wanted a Swiss Made auto but didn't have the available cash for one so the M6 was close enough. Thanks to picking up a course I had enough cash with the refund to go for it. The Steinhart was at the top of my list until I saw the new Ocean7 G-1. I like the combination of GMT function with the "Ploprof" look, so I pulled the trigger on the black bezel. I can't wait to get it next week! That's it for awhile! I have some watches to get serviced/customized this summer, then off to sell some impulse buys!

The Zodiac Oceanaire is right at the edge of being too big, it must be close to 44 mm. Same with my Marina Militare. The 3T Orsa is AWESOME! Fantastic lume, the dial detail is phenomenal, and I love the lumed 31 on the date wheel! It is a great looking watch taken one step beyond, Kent really is a master hand6.gif Cheers, Griff I guess I better get my own camera, otherwise I have some serious explaining to do, LOL |

Hey Griff... you can try the LM-1 on when you come to Orlando, if I can try the G-1. But we gotta make sure the wives dont start comparing notes or find 3T - we'd both be in a world of you-know-what! :shock: |

Nice grab, Griff. After seeing Christian's pix I have to admit that is an Ocean 7 I would like... Might wear it when I want to have on a Pepsi bezel but don't wanna bang up my baby!! |

But we gotta make sure the wives dont start comparing notes or find 3T - we'd both be in a world of you-know-what! :shock: For sure! My wife thinks I am nuts, I want to pack at least 5 watches for the trip. My EcoZilla for our day at Discovery Cove, the G-1, Marathon SAR, 3T Sea Angler and I think my Slava Speedmeter for the conference banquet. Plus I am going to give my older son the Citizen diver I bought for him the morning we are going to the Cove. The kids don't know we booked it yet and the back of the watch has a dolphin on it. I can't wait to see their faces! Thankfully my wife doesn't read the boards, she is on a PC all day at work and doesn't want to see one when she gets home! Cheers, Griff |

I have New York from awhile ago, and Baltimore was out of them last time we were there, grrrrr. Last time we were in Orlando I picked up a Planet Hollywood Zippo but didn't get to the H-R. I am not going to miss this time!!! Cheers, Griff |
