Boy oh boy is my mail man going to be busy with me this week. LOL :D

4 Inbount this week. Yea! :)

I had let the last 3 Orient Orange Beast slide by but this time I had to bite. So now one is on the way to me. :)

While waiting for that I decided to pull the trigger on a Pseudo Ruhla so that will be on the way to me. :P

And while I'm waiting on Keith to get the Boschett Reef Ranger in I decided to snag a Alba Blue Manta Ray‏. :cool:

And to tie me over while waiting for these I picked up the Invicta 2014a from Mike. LOL :D

I love showing my wife posts like these.  I'm trying to convince her that one every month/2months is nothing!  Thanks Skip! :D

The best part is when they all show up on the same day and you have to decide which to size and wear first!

I got home to two notices Friday.  UPS tried to deliver my Laco Diver I've been waiting for for weeks and the USPS tried to deliver my O7 LM-6.  Since UPS isn't open on Saturday I get to enjoy the LM-6 for the weekend and get another new watch Monday afternoon.  Not bad, eh? :P

Yea it has been a busy weekend in more ways than one. LOL :D

And Ken I have the rest of this Easter Sunday to run into another deal I can't pass up. But will try to behave. Maybe! :P

I guess it's a good thing I have no wife with the way i buy watches now and then. I'd have to put a wife out of the house I do not deal well with nagging and such. I love my Mom but she has put my dad through hell over the years. Could be why I stayed single I love my freedom. :)

Yea that missing a delivery sucks. That is why I insist on a tracking number most of the time so I can be here. My cats don't answer the door. Doorbell rings and they head for the bedroom. LOL :D

Dave I went for the Alba for I love the look and missed one by a minute last Summer. Beautiful blue. ;)

Ken your a bum man just a bum! If I end up going for something I am nibbling on right now I'll only be buying one watch in April the Reef Ranger due to setting aside the funds for it. Not sure about May either. Good thing I paid for my Korsbek OE already if I do this. Some will know and others will just have to wait and see. :D:cool:

I must be crazy maybe I should call and wake up my Shrink... LOL subtlelaugh.gif

LOL yea i do need to learn to pace myself some. Just have to try not to break my record from last June. Not even sure I want to remember how many I pulled in June 07. :cool: LOL :D

And nothing came of my nibbles so I guess if nothing by noon I'll move along. One thing i've learned it you sit in wait on one watch to long you could miss out on 2 or more. :?

No but he is eating the PP fees and fast shipping it. Being in the boonies about 2 days maybe. :D

$200 lower than another I looked at last month in brown.

Pseudo Ruhla has been dropped 3 days later I finally get communication watch has not shipped. Did not feel comfy in that deal so backed out of it. If someone communicates with me cool but when left hanging that will kill a deal with me every time. :shock: :?

I just noticed that is was back on the board.  i was going to ask you what happened.  yea i agree with you there should be communication if it is going to take a while to ship.  I just look at who sold me the alba on saturday and i recieved it monday now thats service.  Sorry it happened to you skip your too nice of a guy to be played with like that.

Nothing wrong with the seller he just did not let me know what is going on. And after I am here several days waiting on the watches coming in now I just was not willing to wait longer because he could not get to the PO till Wednesday. I paid right away. If he had just talked to me I could have changed some plans but after the fact not going to happen. If a person talks to me I will work with them. Shoot I bought over 50 watches in 2007 folks know this who have delt with me. But if you don't talk to me I'm going to let you know I'm not happy. I'm not the kind of person who hold stuff in I speak my mind. It can be a stranger or my mom I don't hold back. LOL :D

I believe communication is a must. I always try my best to let the other party know whats going on. You have so many coming in, you won't miss it. LOL.

Ordering watches while waiting for watches.....I can completely understand that one. Especially when the watches you are waiting for are months out. Right now I'm waiting for both the Ocean7 LM-7 and the Korsbek Ocean Explorer. So far I've purchased an Oris 1000m Titan and an Ocean7 LM-6C while waiting. Now I'm getting the itch again because delivery of the two I'm waiting for is still a couple of months out. :(

I've been thinking of picking up one of the new Seiko "FrankenTuna" watches to hold me over. Nothing but good I hear about it. I've seen a couple owners here. Anyone care to share any feedback on this one.

Thanks,

Dave

Hay Dave some great pickups you have made there. I have the "FrankenTuna" on the list myself to buy when I see a good price. Would love to find one with a crazy good deal in the PVD black that is just kewl! :cool:

The O7 LM-7 looks OK to me but one I am thinking about is that O7 LM-4. But with the bigger pickups of the Kenzo, Anonimo and now another Breitling in the last 3 months April I think I will relax a bit. :D

With the Korsbek Ocean Explorer pre-ordered and name put in for the Boschett Reef Ranger that should be good for April. And maybe something from Marc too. LOL :) ;)
