Kobolt, Spirit of America will be released Sept. 1 for $1050

Titanium case with the crown at the 8, hand wind decorated unitas with exhibition back.  The case is the SMG-1 case looks like, so they must have had a minimum on the order to get the price right, so they are selling this one.  The SMG-1 was plagued by cost overruns I believe.

They are both great pieces Marc and that is a great pic of the new family.  They were going to make some # of the SMG-1 and they had to increase it to 100 and sell 50 without the military discount to come out on the piece from what I got over the phone.  I ordered one and then canceled it was to high either way.  The Spirit of America is reasonable though and I will just get one and put it on a Zulu.  I got use to the pre-retail pricing of a few years back.  Doxa will go the same way I would assume.
