Thanks so much
@jrodtx99 and
@tkingjr! I have been reading non-stop and had gotten through those threads already. Basically read through the FAQ forum and the Sticky's in the Flame Free Zone. I do so appreciate a good forum, and do my part to read and search before I ask a whole bunch of questions. But I just could not resist posting because I was looking for THIS watch and this was a great looking rep. I am very excited about it.
I am also an old hat at waiting for an order because I have a lot of custom jewelry pieces made and those can take forever as well. I contacted Ryan and placed an order with InTime for the 33mm Ballon Bleu, just working through payment now. Decided to try using a credit card and it was declined, fraud prevention, so they will have to resubmit the charge. I am also messaging with WBK for a Tank Francaise since he ships from in the US. So yeah, I am a kind of dive right in gal. Now I need to learn more about the movements in these suckers so I know if I need to have them serviced when I get them or not, with them being quartz I am unsure.
Thanks again for the information and the kind welcome!
