Incoming a happy AD story

So sometime in February I stroll into my AD and inquire about the SD43 126600 list. Now I've go long history with this AD but not the sales person so she tells me there are no lists first come first served.

Fast forward to today and I get a call from her and she asks if I'm still interested and I say hell yes. So I jet down to them and there it is in all its glory. She tells me if I want to pass there are others to call and I remind her she told me there were no lists. Laughing she tells me all SS models have lists and I just happened to be first on the SD43 list.

After being on bended knee to the boss (read the wife) I'm now the proud owner of my very own seadweller 126600, and I'm stoked

Incoming a happy AD story

Congratulations! It's a truly excellent piece. I just picked one up form my AD in March. At first I was nervous about the size but after seeing it and wearing it really is perfect in proportion for a medium wrist+.

The "boss" is definitely harder to overcome and the "list". Congrats!
