Spotted in London
As many here I am on waiting list for hopefully for a Pepsi. While traveling to London I thought I would check to see what the UK stores had.
First store I stumble across in the city had this pair in the window. Of course it was a grey market dealer but was great to see one in the flesh for the first time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I know half a dozen friends and colleagues with that "limited edition."
What was their asking price on the Pan-Am party edition? |

Looks like watchfinder labelling. That doesn’t count as being spotted. Pepsi is prob double the rrp and more blnr about 50% above rrp haha

Funny how seeing them side by side in the window like that, and if I weren’t familiar with the hype/demand surrounding the Pepsi right now, I would have picked the BLNR between the two. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

With a side of coleslaw? Coz that will bring it up to £17505. Are you sure it’s worth the extra £5? LMAO

Spotted in London
We to Harrods near Kensington this week and they refused to sell me a Tudor Bronze/Blue even though they had one. They did have a huge amount of every other Black Bay.
I did order a an extra strap for my M79250BB-0001 Bronze/Blue at Watches of Switzerland for an outrageous price of over $US 300 with clasp and (catch part) whatever that was. They wouldn’t have sold it unless I had the serial number and found a picture of the serial stamp in my phone pictures. 4 week wait coming from Switzerland they said. Not being able to post it to the United States, a TRF Member said I could have it posted to his local UK address and he’ll forward it to me . Pictures of what I saw around the City of London I saw a lot of SS OP’s but no GMT, Subs, explorers or the big diver watches. A few Yacht-Masters
