Beer and Boxes... Cinci GMT Purchase!
I was in Cincinnati for business and met up with Mosco and Alexthegreat123 for a small GTG and a purchase
 We has a couple drinks, talked/shared watches, had a great time, they're a couple of good guys, fun to hang with... Anyway, I snapped a few pics and thought I'd share...This is how I like to make a transaction, beer and boxes  ... Mosco brought a killer Paul Newman Daytona, sold just a couple days later, glad I had the chance to check it out in person   With my lowly 1680...  He also brought a hulking Jaeger...   and last but not least, the Z-serial GMT 16710 I ended up with, thanks Alex!     Thanks again Greg and Alex for meeting up, we'll have to do it again when I'm in town!
