Horological Meandering

... Because I just won this beauty and I cannot wait until it shows up on Wednesday. Number 9 out of 100. Woo and Hoo!!! Seiko Discus Burger I have been looking high and low for one of these babies, and this piece is brand spanking new. Yes, I am one happ...  

Wear it in good health. Best SamEE

... with you, SamEE. Thanks for the kind words. Wrist shots to follow. - Scott

I'm tempted to buy one of these babies before myself. Huge Congrats.

...any longer, dundev. The prices on these things keeps going up up up. I was lucky to have even stumbled on it. Thanks! - Scott

I would love to see it in the metal with the dials going around. It must be quite the diversion. Regards, Jon

... I think I want to see the disks whirling around too. - Scott

Awesome one! Very nice. Ken

Thanks so much. I was actually going to PM you about trying to find one of these for me. I spoke with my buddy who lives in Tokyo and he said these pieces are no where to be found. And so, I was really happy when I stumbled on this one. Domo harigato, Ken... 

.. I envy you! Ken

Congratulations, a true styling machine for the wrist which is in gorgeous condition ! I love it, enjoy ! I agree when you say Ebay is a good place, I even agree more when you say sometimes... Sometimes a very good place for people who really know watches... 

... sometimes you can get lucky on eBay and find something rare and desirable at a decent price. It doesn't happen that often, but when it does, it's a great thing. - Scott

- I know, it's no Duometre... but it's also like sixty-five-thousand dollars less :-) - Scott

And original. Fun as well. Congrats Best, Horo

... it'll be here on Wednesday... and once I put it on, I wont be taking it off. - Scott

Be warned, the standard strap is crap so look for another. I put mine on a black steel mesh which i think finished it off nicely Enjoy G

... can you direct me to a site that makes straps for this piece... I could see replacing the strap in short order. What size should I be looking for? Your guidance is much appreciated. Out of curiosity, what did you end up geting when you let the piece g...

... we wait till the second offense before raining down divine fury and chastisement. ;-) A

Great, a fellow PPro :-) Best Hans

... are you the one who was selling it, or were you bidding against me? - Scott

... but I really had to have it! - Scott

A beautiful piece! Wrist shots and live shots mandatory!

... once it arrives, obligatory wrist shots will be posted. - scott

Is it here yet, is it here yet? Another Discus Burger Coming Up!

Patrick - ... I feel like a kid in the backseat on a family trip who keeps asking (bugging) his dad... "are we there yet, are we there yet..." ... I keep checking the tracking number, as if that'll make it get here faster... sorta' like pushing the UP or ... 

But not necessarily if you keep pushing repeatedly faster. Don't know how to push harder in your case though.

... but you are correct. Pushing hard one time is probably equal to pushing softly and repeatedly... but that's a whole other topic, me thinks... :-) - Scott

It's fun watching tracking updates - until it stops in Customs, but that's another story. Hope it arrives safely and looking forward to your review and wristshots. Remember that the weekly Friday WristScan thread is the traditional place to 'introduce' ne... 

... you are the man! Can't wait 'till it gets here. - Scott

Excellent acquisition, well done ! (btw, can you pm me with approximately how much ? I need to enlarge my search)

... I sent you a PM. - Scott
