Last photo - this in the 39mm Jumbo form factor would be absolutely insane:

Great pics, congrats!

Can you take a pic of this on the wrist but from far away?

This will give everyone a great sense of wrist presence in general

The 34 mm size looks great on this wrist.

Can I ask what the wrist size is in these pics?

My wife is going to give me a very odd look when I ask for her wrist size, but I will do and report back.

Edit: Ok, result is in, a little under 6", 5 7/8 or so.

Thanks! YG Jumbo will have to wait - when discussing options the boutique manager eventually got out the laptop to check, conclusion was that anything 50th in gold was just not possible. Can't really complain, they have a lot of other people to make happy. Still hoping for a 50th in steel (41mm, not Jumbo) - CE would be even better, but that will be a challenge as well, if it even happens.

Is gold more popular than steel? I would have thought that gold pieces would be easier to obtain than steel?

As mentioned, at 'my' boutique, this late in the year, there was no chance for any gold 50th, not Jumbo, not 41mm RO/ROC, not the 37mm RO w/ diamond bezel. They offered to do their best to find a 50th 41mm steel RO/ROC in any desired dial color (which i gladly accepted - we'll see).

Obviously, there are fewer gold models made. Another factor may be that many existing clients (on whatever list controlling the 50th anniversary allocations) already have steel RO/ROCs, and therefore might be looking for YG/RG to complement their collections (that was why I was asking for RG).

Are these watches really scratch proof?

Would appreciate it if those who own these all ceramic APs could chime in.

My wife wants to wear this as her daily and she’s not careful at all with her jewelry/timepieces.

Thank you very much.
