Well, the watch is in the capable hands of the postal service now. Hopefully that will be in Colorado by Friday and can be on a watchmaker’s bench soon. I will keep you guys posted.

Is your watchmaker in Colorado or is that just one stops on the way to the destination? I'd be interested in a recommendation if you have someone in CO.

The first stop is Denver, Colorado and I am pretty sure the watchmakers that Terry works with are local to him. Not sure who that might be.

Gotcha. I somehow missed the Toxic Natos Colorado Springs connection.

Color me embarrassed. Colorado Springs it is and not Denver. That tells you how many cities I have been to in Colorado. My apologies to you and all that live in Colorado who may or may not live in a 1980’s beer commercial.

You were only ~70mi too far north. No apology necessary, but I'll pass it along just in case.

OK, big update. The watch is back!

I will have more pictures, but you can have a couple for now.
