Appreciate your kind comments. I wish you’ll receive your call very soon. Both variants Batman and Pepsi ate awesome. Not an easy choice as both are so beautiful. I like the Jubilee so much in vintage and modern GMTs. Best cordial regards Abel

Congratulations, Abel! I’m so glad your patience was rewarded.

Sometimes stars align for us to make true our wishes. I’ll enjoy it so much and I’m sure sooner or later I’ll add a few scratches (hopefully very light! Lol! ) to it as part of its history on my wrist. Thank you for your kind good wishes and comments! Abe...
