As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

We’re thinking of getting one!
We have a 2015 Traverse, sort of the Enclave's poor, unwashed brother. We like it. Its the old body style when all three of the generals (Traverse, Acadia, Enclave) shared the same platform. I know thats changed a bit, so may not be apples to apples anymore.

Its big, which is great for kids. Its been reliable (knock on wood). Has the usual GM, shoddy workmanship problems (knobs fall off, rear heat is temperamental, CD player just stopped working despite not getting a lot of use). I would not pay $45k for one or up, which is what I have seen them go for, but if found at right price I would go for it.

YMMV

This thing is hard to photograph. It really is a proper "circle" not an oval as it shows up in pictures. The case and crystal have a significant curve to them, which is cool, just not photogenic. ImageImageImage

^^^. try photographing from a bit further away... I think you are too close to the watch which will amplify even more the effect. Further away and then zooming in to frame it should yield better results. ^^^

Just received, adjusted the bezel spring to keep it tight, and sized the cheap original bracelet. New reality also mandated washing the watch with desinfectant soap.
Really like the slave GMT hand.

Another dress watch that isn't getting much daylight these days.
SARB065 on a (glycine) mesh. Not sure I'm sold the combo as it's a bit overly blingy, but it's always fun to put this one on different straps.
