I tried one on for the first time at a local AD on Friday and was duly impressed... I now have a very gently used specimen on its way from FL :headbang:

Well, I finally got one back into my collection as well. A red BB, BNIB for 400 bucks less than the first one I got used. My name's on the card now so it's staying for good.

Congrats John! Love that watch! I'm currently trying to decide between the BB you picked up and an Oris Sixty Five.

Black Bays are lovely, especially with that red bezel.
