Does anyone have pics of the watch? If it is decent, I might have to go the box of chocolates route instead too!

Dude, even it cost them $1, you think making $18 profit is a crime in business? lol
Ahhh, to run a business these days.... ALL business owners are millionaires, right - and they're making money hand-over-fist....
You'd do well in government CM, 'Tax the bastards some more, they can afford it!'
How ironic you are very defensive regarding "making a profit" and yet the whole issue here is a crime.
All business owners are not millionaires. However it was considered to be embarrassing and inappropriate in the 1960's for a CEO to be making a crazy amt over their employees. I think on average it was 16:1. Now it's only 500:1
Corporations, which are out of control, are to blame for the troubles we are in, not government. And. I could go on but that would be better served in another thread. and I happen to own 3

Not even sure where to start with that one, Pho.... I think you may have taken my post out of context.....?
An interesting comment you make though (and definitely ripe for another thread) regarding large scale corporations and their lack of affiliation with government. Take the banking sector for one, shining example.... And then tell me they are not one and the same?!

Q
Well, I'm sure I did. I hope it didn't offend you personally. The first part was meant as a joke, really i was pointing out the irony in your choice of words
The second part you opened the door, so I just threw down a few lines. S
By the way, as I said on RWG last week. Some people need to just dive in, for 19$ you really should just do it if you like it.
It's also interesting what some of the expectations are. I did a member sale and after we agreed and he paid. He was like ok. Send me tracking. Now I do tracking because of a dispute where someone claimed they didn't get a package. But, that is a service not mentioned or bargained for. Another nice fella today, started a thread because he bought a watch from another member and after the transaction completed and it had been a day and a half and hadn't heard from him.
Point is, life has risk. For 19$ minimal risk.

That'll do just fine for $19! Puretime just won my business. Thanks.
How big is the size of the watch in question? The website says 34mm, while the members say 38mm~40mm. I do have a <6 inch wrist and I have to make sure it fits

It says 34mm but they send me the 38mm. So u better expect a 38mm lol.
The santos looks and wears bigger than my 38mm round orient and I dont think it will fit a <6" wrist since it barely fits my 6.5" wrist.
A side by side with my 42mm JLC:
