    It's Been a While

    Hi guys!

    Between traveling for work and home remodeling, I took a break from all forums for a while. But now I'm back! (Not that I was missed. )

    Only one purchase over the past year:

    Name: P1030454.JPG Views: 99 Size: 226.4 KB

    Name: P1030453.JPG Views: 99 Size: 213.9 KB

    Purchased through Dan at Timeless, btw. Very nice guy!

    STOC:

    Name: P1030452.JPG Views: 97 Size: 217.3 KB

    Not including the stuff in the "junk" drawer, of course. :-P

    Oh, yeah. The dial trumped my concerns about the movement.

    Welcome back! Curious what your concerns were on the movement? I cannot find a fault with the SD movement from any aspect and I've had five of them.
    Cheers,

    Michael

    Tell everyone you saw it on IWL!

    Welcome back, Colin! The Snowflake is an excellent pickup (says another guy who has one).
