Thanks guys. Took a while but very happy with my choice.
Still looking for the elusive birth year 5513 though.
I would love to see the Pan Am when it's done. Only build I may take on as no chance for a gen there.
Here you go. Celebratory cigar[emoji50]

That's just stunning Mark. I was scratching my head when you posted about trying on the BLNR and then walking out without it (I couldn't have done it!), but now I see why. Well done brother, a very smart choice.

Just waiting on the Yuki case - I have everything else (except the bracelet - not in the budget yet and I'm already up around $1700). Probs another month or so.

Thanks man. Yes very happy to go vintage.
If you need a Joey B insert and brass coin edge bezel let me know. I have a set unused and would cut you good deal.

Thanks man, I might take you up on that. We'll see how the parts I already have fit together first, but you know how these builds go ;)
