TY Guys..Ken,JP,Skip!hand6.gif the weight is fine even at 360grams and doesn't seem to be a factor...a little top heavy though:D I walked in the house and my daughter said there's a big box that arrived:)...I was surprised to see it came from TT/SAH as it was just shipped ups ground Friday....but there was no mistaking what it was!....a total of 3 boxes in all before I got to the watch case itself....and HEAVY:shock: Wait till' you see all that came with this Watch which is also large and deceptive as the Watch looks small in it's private collectors case and belive me there is nothing small about this watch:P...the paperwork is Awesome and the COSC cert is much different than the others I have...all in all I am smiling from ear to earsmile8.gif

I knew if anyone was going to get the Charmex it would be you Oscar. Enjoy your historical timepiece.

Now that I have recovered from my initial reacion let me congratulate you on what appears to be a most impressive and outstanding timepiece. It certainly is massive and looks nuclear bomb proof. Enjoy that sucker and soon those 12 oz. lifts will be child's play!! toon1.gif
