Man... Acquiring ones grail must be so exhilarating and deflating at the same time... Nothing more to wish for. Until the next grail of course... Congrats! Stunning watch, stunning collection!

Huge Congrats Gus! What a kickass foursome you have in your pics. Is that a travel case of sorts? I am interested in finding something that can store four watches for when I am travelling. If you don't mind please share or PM me what those beauties are stored in.

Love the way you went for the gusto Gus ! I share the same mentality, Just Do It. Love the fearsome foursome. That's the perfect number. Wear them in the very best of health.
