Ken your collection is nothing short of breathtaking, and these 2 ALS you have recently picked up are truly as good as it gets.

You have really set the mark incredibly high for all your future watch purchases.

Congrats on yet another amazing pick up!!

Doc it isn't. They couldn't get one but an AD I use in another state had one tucked away in the safe. See you in a few weeks!
