After 20 days, I finally got my 111h!

[sportsterrider]

Got my 111h from Pete2528ca today after much waiting (well, considering I get stuff from China in FIVE days, 20 days feels like "much" waiting) and it was worth the wait. It's the swiss swan neck version that looks to be genuine as opposed to an asian copy.

I took a couple quick shots:

Anyway, just wanted to follow up from the Canada Post topic I started last week and to thank Pete2528ca for a top notch transaction.

Ahh, it's no sweat man. My concern was that it was lost, or held somewhere in customs. With the lack of updates from CP and USPS, I could only guess as to where the package was. And with the knowledge that you paid for 7-10 day delivery, it had me wondering if I'd ever get it.

To those that asked about the taters - those in the picture were part of a bag that went to making potato salad for a cookout this past weekend for my brother who just left for Marine Basic Training. Mmmm... potato salad, burgers and beeeer...

I can tell you from experience that shipping to or from CA is very slow for some reason.

good looking watch...the L SWISS MADE L doesn't look as squished with the "6" like a lot of the chinese
swiss swans...
1. get the superlume
2. pin fix
3. mod the lever so its not floppy
4. get nice thick premium strap for it

You said mod the lever, but how can you do that, because on mine it is a little bit "floppy"

Greetings Navi :wink:
