Great video guys. I like the IWC Ryan was wearing! Good luck picking up some new brands - very exciting.

[@jasondalton6182]

Congrats on your new IWC Ryan. Nice GMT MII, George. That Ferrier movement... and dial... wow! You guys are knocking it out of the park. You have a fantastic pre-owned section.

Well done George, it’s fun to look for new product 👍

Would love to see you folks move more towards the independent horology scene! The Trilobe Une Folle Journée is on my list, as are a couple more H. Moser & Cie. The Arnold & Son was a strong addition!
