for, as it turned out, my early Christmas present to me. So the timing of AP was actually rather nice. Picked it up yesterday. Haven't had any time posting a propper picture (so here comes an iPhone pic). It's an Audemars Piguet 15202ST. And I'm loving it's light- and thinness.

And it got delayed so many times that at some point I didn't care anymore (still had the option saying 'no thank you' when it arrived). And let's face it, none of us would be watch-less during a wait like that anyway. Maybe the long wait will add somethin...

Ordered a watch in 2004 and paid 50% of price. End of 2014 coming up and no watch. Does half a watch paid count? ;) MTF

As we always said growing up - close only counts in tossing horseshoes and hand grenades. But half isn't even close. I'd say it doesn't count. But that's just me. Mike

Several years ago, I purchased this beautiful golden Longines chronograph: The saleswoman was preparing it for me to wear immediately, and I was just about to give my credit card over the desk, when she pressed the chronographs's start pusher and said: "...
