Thank you Bill and a happy new year to you I am born in the last week of June 1968. I might actually have to look for a second speedy from that period. What reference / calibre serial number should I look for? My Speedy will probably arrive in a week or t...

I hope it gets clear by customs quickly
By: AlexSunrise : January 12th, 2010-10:11
Hi, Hans! Thanks for your message. Your case is indeed a great example on how good things come to those who wait . You are without a doubt, incredibly patient. In my case I would be camping out at the customs office waiting for them to clear my parcel. Ho...
Hans, as i said to...
By: G99 : January 12th, 2010-10:26

I am normally a very patient person..
