Double incoming

Got the call last week, unexpectedly as we're in a middle of a lockdown here in the UK, for the two tone black dial Sky Dweller. Went to collect it this morning and when I got back home the new Xbox arrived.

The watch is borderline too big for me and I don't normally like to wear big watches but this is one I will make an exception too the rule.

Huge congratulations! I love that Sky-D in a TT option. Looks really good with that black dial!

Looks perfect on you, truly awesome watch. Forget SS blue dial, this is the best looking Sky D imo...

Congratulations, really surprised that you could pick it up from the shop.

But if the store is getting deliveries why not make a few calls and open the door when the customer comes to collect.

Enjoy this wonderful watch and wear in good health.

Congratulations from a fellow UK lockdowner...
Was AD in shopping mall or stand alone shop - just wondered how pickup went!
Nice to see the kids playing computer games wearing nice watches too!

Don't think the watch is too big for you- think you are too big for the Xbox!

I am intrigued on how you picked it up. I put a deposit down on a Daytona the week before lockdown and am now waiting until December to pick it up!!!
