Icon10 I am officially done. Grail obtained.










I was attempting to get a pic of the etched glass, you can actually see it much better on the previous picture.

No more watches for me, I have been wanting this watch for upwards of 10-15 years now. Now I just need to unload my omega.

You are talking about the pug right?

We lost ours 5 weeks ago and this nice fella came to live with us this week.



Oh, yeah. nice watch too.

(be careful when starting a dog thread around here)

I had so hard time finding your grail in the biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig picture you got there... First I thought it was inside the crumbled paper bag , then I thought you tied it to your dogs leg or something Finally I found your watch...kept scrolling and the never ending picture finally stopped on the familiar Sub and there you go...

Got to love that 16610
