Incoming Finally
After a 25 month wait, it finally arrived. I received a text from my AD this afternoon, that it was here. I present my SD43 Two Tone. Special thanks to forum member NYYankees (Jim). We share an AD. Even though I was just speaking to my sales associate a couple weeks ago, Jim was visiting today and put in a good word.

This is all the more exciting, because I celebrated my 20th anniversary at my employer yesterday. So it all worked out.IMG_0569.jpg

Congrats, OP! Glad it finally came in. A 25 month wait for a Sea-Dweller is freaking ridiculous though.

Nevertheless, wear it in good health.

Thank you, it was a long wait. Came from our mutual AD!

Thank you. It was pure coincidence. My AD had no idea it was my 20th, and I had never mentioned it.
