INCOMING!!!! aka little brother delivered!

I bought the bullet and selected a BNIB 'O' series zero logo. I couldn't be happier. Thanks for everyones help the other day when the 112 suddenly popped into the running. Though I love that one too, I went for the one I've wanted the longest. It really is stunning in person --- and it wasn't until I saw one in person did I really want one (about a year ago). Here it is folks, brand new on an old strap! And also with its more complicated brother HAGWE!

Thanks guys! I wish only I didn't wait so long, but this one was probably meant for me. I enjoyed the journey to get to this point. I don't think I'll get another for quite a while. My next watches will be of the more economical variety Cheers!

thanks! I just noticed after I snapped this pic how fat the numbers are on my 212 and how much bigger the face of the zero is. I'm a happy man
