Huge congrats looks awsome. And that’s a great store in Paris, I’ve always had a great time there when visiting.

Curious to see this on a rubber strap when somebody does that - I feel it will lend itself perfectly to it with the slightly more sporty vibe than the 15400.

Congrats! That's a great acquisition esp as a first time buyer. Wears it in good health.

I can't help but noticed in another thread, someone was complaining AP boutique refusing to allocate the exact same watch even when he was willing to pay a 100% deposit upfront. It looks like some kind of profiling going on?

Wasn’t a fan of the 15500 when it came out. Seeing these pictures I have to say it looks amazing. Congrats again.

I was so lucky to went there at the right time when they still accepted the deposit plus SA is excellent guy too. Maybe we both are PSG fan that could make thing a bit easier

Being that person. I believe it boils down to US vs Europe boutiques.

Have you tried your luck at the Miami boutique? From past threads, they appears to be the "nicer" of the two, relatively speaking.

Nah. Paris gave me kinda same experience as your NY. However, other 2 boutiques in Europe treated me very very nice.

New movement, new dial layout, addition of raised chapter ring thingy, removal of “automatic” text, shorter fatter indices, larger date I believe.
