That is good news Stephen, always glad to hear when someone,s watch woes are less.
Do you get your watch material locally?
Just curious, keep up the good work Stephen.

I buy from the U.S sometimes, i thought maybe in Vancouver there might be a parts or materials place.I like Tom at Dashto he is very quick to ship and good prices.
