I think that is Alexandria, Egypt.

Something is effed up, the map does show the DC area but the store's address is shown as

Time Trade
Alexandria City Center Mall
Egypt

I don't believe Certina actually has any US dealers.

No US dealer. Have to buy abroad. There were a few good ADs in Spain with competitive pricing if I remember well. But why rush, soon enough a few will inevitably come up for sale mint... in the US. Put an alert on recon

Jomashop sells Certina. Probably just a matter of time before they have the orange-dialed variant in stock.

I'll need to see more wrist shots to make a decision on this.

These look really good, but the lug to lug would never work for me. Otherwise I would have owned the black one already.

Well that works out to around $1,000; rather wait to see what you think.

That’s a lot of cool watch for the money.

I had that reissue 3-hand model. Was a cool watch, accurate, and overall well executed.

Seriously, I really like my PH200M, and Jura was awesome to deal with. However, I am having an issue with the bezel (no clicks, turns both ways), not sure if the bezel spring is broken or just needs to be repositioned.

Debating if I want to try and send it in (when the world reopens), take it to my local guy, or try and pop it off myself.

So who's got a pre-order in? They are supposed to ship early next month - I've got my order in with Steiner Jewelers in Innsbruck (best price I've found so far).

I'm in on the DS Super PH500m orange dial. Just waiting to hear from Jura.

This is what Certina told Steiner:

"Unfortunately we are currently unable to intervene to prevent this delay. We have been informed that your order should arrive in US by the beginning of August.
