I posted it hoping someone would buy it and share some real life pics. The watch looks incredible! Enjoy!

The Junghans Meistrer MEGA.
Now my second radio controlled watch, albeit much nicer than my Leap Year Challenge one.

Showing off the Junghans Meister MEGA again.
Had to send this back to DKSH, because it looked like there was a paint bleed on the dial at the "C" of DCF, after an inspection.
Turned out to be some debris.
But when they sent it back, there was dust and a hair under the crystal, so had to send it in one more time.

I'll give DKSH credit, they provided shipping labels for me to return the watch twice and they turned it around quickly.
Would've preferred only having to send it in once, but glad to have it back.

Now I just need to adjust the bracelet.

I can see why you chose that watch. Frostbite, as I recall you like cold weather, frostbite type cold. [emoji6]

Looking forward to your review.

I really wanted the 38mm and was nervous about the size, but pleasantly surprised that it works. I actually like it more than I thought I would, especially at half off.

These CWs are pretty great. Will definitely grab another one day. Loving that bronze and that strap!

This one was actually delivered about 7 weeks ago but I've only now had a chance to get back home to wear it. The Islander Aviator from Long Island Watch...... purchased on this forum from [mention]59yukon01[/mention]. Really happy with it! This is gonna look great on leather, canvas, and NATOs.

Was wondering when you were going to wear it. Glad you like it! It was one I had to sacrifice to get the Arnie reissue. One in out rule. [emoji4]

More from GioiaPura. They definitely sell Citizen watches, but don't understand or care which watch goes where....and here are some warranty cards and random manuals.... Great prices though. I didn't notice til after i took the picture, but look closely at those warranty cards :shock: so much wrong happening

Are you able to determine from photos whether that is grime or rust? How?
