impressed with the diversity of your new watches and they all seem to match very well with each other. The MKII brand is new to me, how do you like it so far ?

2018 Year End Retrospective

Here's my retrospective from a watch collecting/accumulating perspective for this year: 2018 started with delivery in January 2nd of a watch I pre-ordered back in September 2017. It arrived at the U.S. AD on Dec. 27, 2017, but due to the New Year's holida...  

What a killer year!

I love many of your pickups... love the Sinn but have to say the Zodiac really resonates with me. Looks like a really perfect watch for the Summer time vibe. Here's to a 2019 full of restraint!🙈

I can't remember a year when I did 15-20 watches ... I lost count on the double orders and returns and not yet delivereds. I know how it goes. Mike

Well you've been busy - Congratulations Great year! [nt]

I've got the EZM 1.1 and the two versions of the North Adventure. My favorites are your ultraman and the Porsche Design IWC. Great watches all. Congrats.

Thanks my friend! [nt]

MkII started off almost 20 years ago making modification (mod) parts for Seikos like dials, hands, crystals, bezel inserts. They developed a reputation for high quality mod parts where a lot of them going around these days are really junk (ill fitting or ...
