    Visited the NYC Boutique after a phone call from the "Great Enabler" Patrick letting me know that the watch we had been discussing had arrived.

    Patrick insisted on documenting the event.

    After wearing it a few hours, it was well worth the wait.
    Thanks for looking.

    Regards,
    Kevin

    What were those famous last words back in August? Oh yeah, no more watches until next year. Heh, heh...

    It was great seeing you at the boutique this afternoon, Kevin; and as for your new VC AT, you wear it well. Congratulations!

    With respect to Patrick, all I can say is keep an eye on your chocolate. ;-)

    Regan,

    Kevin - oh wow! jealous! I was just at NYC boutique as well and the saleslady there told me she just located a Vintage AT in the system, but I walked away from it. I think I'm so gonna regret it... Congrats!

    Kevin,

    CONGRATULATIONS !! I can see by the smile on your face how much you are loven' that VC-AT. So fine looking in the flesh...yes?

    I think I know how you pulled this off. You changed out all the calendars in your home with 2013's. Then made sure anything that had a visual date to it was set to Jan. 1, 2013. Shortly after midnight, you woke up your wife out of a sound sleep and yelled...HAPPY NEW YEAR !! Shared a glass of Champagne and then said you have an appointment first thing in the morning at the Boutique.

    Kevin, is that pretty much how it went ?

    Again, BIG congrats...enjoy with good health and happiness.

    Andy

    Kevin, big congrats on that one! Are you really done for the year after this one? Reminds me of Groundhog Day.

    Congratulations Kevin! I'm glad that you were able to locate one - it looks great on you. I'll wear mine today in your honor. Enjoy the new watch in good health.

    If you spend any more time in the boutique they're going to start charging you rent.

    Well done Kevin. The VC-AT is becoming quite a forum favorite and I must say the more I see it, the more I like it too.

    Kind regards,
    Marinus

    Congratulations Kevin on finally getting your VC Aquatimer. I tried it on my wrist a few years ago but opted for the BP instead.

    Enjoy your new beauty and wear it in good health!

    Greetings from a sunny Cannes,

    Looks great on your wrist, Kevin! That model certainly seems to be growing in popularity around here!

    Still a few months left in the year. What's next?

    I almost dare not tell you, but the watch that followed my AT VC into my collection was the Blue dialed PPC!

    Enjoy and wear in good health.

    Congratulation Kevin. The VC AT is a great timepiece. Wear it in good health ... and make sure it gets from time to time into the water

    Kevin,
    As you are sinking deeper and deeper into the IWC collectors world, at least you have this wonderful diver to protect you. Glad you've finally got it-

    It seems you have more IWCs at your house than the Boutique has in the store. Congratulations, one more for 2012.
