SoCal is an unknown quantity at this point
I have never heard a bad thing about the X-Wind Autos... Nice pick up for your first auto.

That is a great looking watch! Can't wait for wrist shots...

GrayTT: also check out the 10watches .com site. They have a TON of cool mods for the skx. You can also send them your watch to have it modded.

Also, if you want to save a good chunk of money, check out ebay for the skx007. I bought mine from a singapore seller who had a rating over 100,000. I saved well over 50% retail.

Got here 20 minutes ago... i'm like a kid at Christmas. Came with an extra strap as well on it. What's a reasonable price to pay for a watch cleaning?

The variation in price is very irregular. I have seen $25-$200+.

I think the biggest thing is where you take it. IMO, Tourneau or an AD for your brand would be optimal. Unfortunately, I have read alot of stories of sketchy shops taking a watch in for cleaning and handing it right back to the owner without even touching it- even at lesser known ADs.
