That thing is beautiful! I can't believe that it is actually in my price range [barely]. I have some things to think about this year...

Thanks for sharing the pic, Neil!

Beautiful!

The blue looks so much better in a real life pic.

Man, that blue is a stunner. Might require saving for a bit longer than I had planned.

I just can't do the WG bezel. It's too flashy for my tastes. Beautiful piece though.

I'm torn.
Sunburst blue. In the price range for sure.

Dial is too busy.

I have to try it on. The markers/batons are very long in some spots and the 5,6,7 are short as can be.

I ABSOLUTELY HATE NICKNAMES for watches but with the blue & white and that tiny splash of red, you can't say anything but Captain America, right?

Lovely pic. I'm not sure on the fluted bezel however, so maybe not for me....

Absolutely stunning. I'm first on the list at my AD! Of course, that will mean flying back to pick this thing up after we move (continents) this summer, but I'm guessing a flight+hotel for a couple nights will still be cheaper than paying a premium on the grey market, as some threads show that the list is up to 15 people at some ADs in the States. Looking forward to my next incoming in about, oh, 6-9 months.

It's irrelevant for me unfortunately.
