I emailed you his information, and some of the specs for my watch.

Really, the options are endless-and for the money, I’d highly recommend going this route.

I have one of the Stauer watches, a replica of the first self-winding watch, from the '20s. The only problem is that I don’t wear it often enough, so have to reset everything when I do. But I love how it looks.
