Hey Joe !
In Response To: Heuer Autavia 'My Siffert' ()

Congratulations !

Wow, what a start !
Not bad. Not bad at all ! ;-)

It was smart not to lose patience and not going after those cheap offers on the bay, IMO.
You were right about two major things here:
1. "Patience is the key" - kind of like "good things come to those who wait" .... and to
2. "Buy the seller, not the watch" , as they often say.

So you bought a great watch (I saw it on his hp) from a great seller - from a true gentleman, IMO.

Enjoy your new "baby" and make sure you wear it every now and then too; and not just keep it hidden in some box or safe.

Life is really good sometimes, isn't it ?! ;-)

Best regards,
Cheers,
Olaf
