The Grail seemingly demands sacrifice...

Grail speedie lost... Posted By: David DeVos Date: 2/15/06 14:19 GMT

Very sad news received yesterday....The watch purchased last December never made it out of Switzerland. Parcel deemed lost, now time to recoup my $$$, and start the search anew. If anyone has a lead (wishful thinking) on a 1045 moonwatch, feel free to let me know.

Cheers,

David

David... As I related to you yesterday on the phone, I understand and can relate to your situation... There is something about the Grail that requires a prolonged search with many travails and setbacks until you actually can put one on your wrist.
I know it is little solace, but here are some recent threads from over at TZ...

Elaborations... on why this model is called "The Grail"�

and:

A long combined reply on why this model is called "The Grail"�

and:

OK, one of you was right: 376.0822�

In fact, you might find the entire theads in each instance to be worth your time.

I hope this is some solace!
