Decision has been made!!!

After much deliberation, I've finally decided to add another piece to my tiny collection.

It was between a GMTIIc, Yacht-master, LV sub and Milgauss.

In the end, the Milgauss GV won..... I love it! Deposit paid and picking it up this weekend!

Great choice!!! You will love it. Something very different with the green crystal. When you catch it in the right light it looks stunning!!

Nice one

Did you find it in an AD's window or did you have to order it? Are these getting easier to find?

Probably going to be my next one (when i've saved up!)

DM Robinson is my local AD. They just had a delivery of 3, 2 of which were spoken for, the 3rd?? well it's mine now!

Someone else did mention seeing one at Mappin & Webb (Gleneagles) so I presume there are a few more filtering through.

Great pick, the Milguss GV would be my pick also. Enjoy the watch.
