That’s really nice. I know the tiny dial would be a deal breaker for me, but it’s still tempting.

Damn that is nice

One of you rich guys buy one and I'll pick it up from you "gently used". Please be careful with the lugs when changing straps. Thanks in advance! ;)
Paul knows us.....

And ya I ordered one. :shrug:

I flipped the 300T, so I wonder if this would stick.

Damn, tempting.
I would like to try a Pro, and this would be the one. Pity I am over committed right now :crybaby:

Just found the invitation email in my junk mail folder. I'm tempted, but between my 1200T Pro (which I think is my perfect Doxa), and my wife's 300 noT SR reissue, we're going to sit this one out, I think...

Ordered. Now waiting for the inevitable Hodinkee article to drive up the price to double.

Can't go wrong with this one.

Hopefully this means more special versions of the 300 re-release are coming soon... I'd love to see a logo'd Rambler.

God, that guy writes as badly as Angus Davies. Still, I think I'd rather have a 1200 Pro, I miss the last two I had. Anybody wanna trade one for a gently used Aerospace?

I'm betting they will use the case for a bipax or three subdial chrono in 2018, :pray: .

Well I tried to pay last night while out drinking and my PayPal didn't work... now I'm glad it didn't!

As bad as I want to see it and wear it... I know it wouldn't last long because the Orange. Beautiful watch, and if this was the SR I may fold. I've actually been looking for an anniversary shark like I sold at the beginning of the year.

:think: I really want one of these, but I also really want a 1200t pro. Like Ben, I really like the 50th Shark I had a while back I just wish the dial was a little big bigger.

I had my finger hovering on the pay button. But I didn't because I reckon Doxa have become awake to the brand value of their heritage and if the next thing off the blocks is a vintage t-graph reissue I don't want to have blown up my Paypal too soon.

It really is a pretty watch, no matter the dial size. Good for them.

I recently got what I consider a sweet deal on a mint condition 300 Pro re-issue, so I'm only a little envious of those who got in on this pre-sale. I've got a larger than average wrist, but I realize that it's a 1960's style watch, so the dial size doesn't bother me.

That was fast.

Faster than the EZM1.1. Who knew?

but I will wait for the next inevitable Doxa "limited edition" --- especially as I am sure a T-graph is coming. They haven't had one for a few years, and I am sure it is in process.

I will settle on my 300 pro....

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had

Hmm the DOXA web site just let me add one to my cart. I didn't buy, but was just curious.

Said Sold Out earlier and the Doxa moderator on WUS changed the thread to Sold Out. Now the thread on WUS has been changed. Maybe they screwed up.

I'd order now though.
