1st time posting in the new arrivals.. long story short.. Bought this off a fellow WISer and was delivered on June 8th to my forwarder.. Customs Officials in my country raided all the Agencies in search of illegal imports and turned a 1 week process into a Month and a Half of sufferingwhichone.gif.... Today I finally got that great "You've got a Package" email and rushed to get it..

DM500 is a tank of a watch, feels solid and great.. The wait was worth itthumbsup.gif..

Unboxing..



First Look..



And for now.. mandatory Wrist Shot



Excuse the cell phone pics--- ;)

Great buy Ricardo, definitely a worthy addition to your collection! These are great watches, underrated IMO! I'd love the auto version myself :)

Wear it in good health.

Great choice Ricardo, I used to own one a while back, and it is very well made all the way. And the lume on it is just stellar!
Congratulations

A great under appreciated watch!
I just saw one of these with the bezel markers painted black for contrast, looked really sharp!

Congrats! ThumbsUp02.gif

Thanks for all the warms words guys! I've wore it almost non stop for 2 days straight and I must say it feels great! The rubber strap is really something! The watch is a bit on the heavy side...

Brice, the auto titanium must be truly a work of art!! You definitely should buy it!!!thumbsup.gif

Thanks Jeff althought you'd find it too small since the diameter is only 43mmdog smile.gif
