219 Kukulkan Watch
Three Swiss guys were drunk one night after partying and they came up with this watch model and brand idea. I am not making that up, that is what the press release clearly says. Their combined intoxicated intelligence seemed to agree that it was their personal mission in life to realize the first ever high-end watch borne out of pre-Columbian Latin American culture.The trio drew influence from things they had seen in Mexico and chose to focus on ancient Mayan culture.

So I decided on the 45mm (thinner) model with the 8500 movement. I wanted to be sure I got the D version so I decided to buy new and move fast as they are disappearing since being recently discontinued. I wasn't sure which band I wanted, so along with the steel bracelet, I ordered the mesh and the black rubber strap with orange stitching (I'll address the rubber strap later in a different post). When I received the watch I was thrilled with the watch but the steel band felt very heavy and uncomfortable. And although i

This is probably my most comfortable 47mm on the wrist because of the low weight.

SD43 and Rolex Freak.
I will also post a piece in Who's Who but I would like to share my little story here also.I purchased an SD43 from Rolex Freak last week. The deal was seamless from start to finish with great communications and I could not have asked for a more accommodating or professional individual to buy from.The watch arrived at my home in the UK on Wednesday afternoon - less than an hour AFTER I had left to go to the airport to head back to work in Iraq for a month I would like to publicly acknowledge and thank Sandro for his superb service.I now have 29 sleepless night to spend waiting for my baby......
