I'm a Noob here too, having just joined a few days ago. I am interested in the same watch, or possibly the "no date" version. I've been scouring these forums for the past three days, and have learned a lot.
This is the mother thread which you should navigate to read up on this watch:

Finally, it seems that the supply chain for these timepieces is largely based in China, which I understand, shuts down for A MONTH to celebrate the New Year. Jeez, some Communist Dictatorship, eh? I wish I got a month off!
Good luck, and please share your findings and other threads you've found helpful, the Search function isn't the most intuitive I've seen.
