Thanks, don't worry about it too much, I think they have discontinued that model. I am beginning to like the sound of that Tissot Silen-t. A little pricey maybe but I am hoping I can find a source for one in Houston. Up here in Canada they seem to be charging a lot of money which probably means big import duty.
Now if I can find a short cruise to use up a little time while down there after seven days both my wife and I can bring in $750 each tax free.
