Christmas surprise from friendly AP boutique

"I have good news for you. Your watch 26331ST.OO.1220ST.03 is in stock now." World's best sales manager

Hadn't really expected the watch from this year's allocations. Now I just need to explain to the wife why exactly this is a prudent financial move

Hedge against inflation...30 day free call option on credit card before possible “earnings announcement” aka price hike speculation.

Or my favorite: no, no, this is not a new watch. I’ve always had it.

Congrats in advance on such a. Great piece!

Haha yeah the “no it’s not new I’ve had it for years” is my favorite!

Also, congrats to the OP!

Excellent news. In terms of justification for the wife, simple, it’s cheaper than maintaining a mistress which is the other option to make happy.

Not sure if my wife could tell the ROC from the RO but I'm sure she can count the dwindling number of empty slots in the watch box

Hehe. The sales manager did kindly confirm to my wife that the watch had to be paid in full before the end of the year to avoid the upcoming price increase. Good to go, I think
