Hi Dwayne

I know the feeling...indeed we would like to have info when deciding on a watch.
I always try to anticipate questions which would be asked as a consumers. For this question, I've yet to get any input till now.

However, to ensure authenticity of the pieces ( or any recourse) , it is logical and more secure to purchase from AD.

Drop any question you've here...somebody will answer it if they know.

When have time, please share with us your joy. Thanks.

Hi Dwayne & Steve Steve, thanks for pointing out I've referred to another model. 1) Dwayne, the Black dial 8997 in SS as both you and Steve have should be the non-limited version. The quantity should be dependent on the market demand, from the commercial ...
