Congrats! I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that my AD will get one in for me.

Ha...I wanted the white dial version but no way would I have turned down the black dial version when mine came in. Both are beautiful versions!!!

I'm so grateful I was in the right place at the right time right after they were introduced at the Baselworld event. Lucky lucky..

Congratulations, enjoy in good health!

Out of curiosity how long have you had to wait from the time of registration, roughly?

Certainly not trying to cast doubt on your post (and my apologies if it sounded like I was).

No worries. Just wanted to clarify. More than anything I just wanted to remind people that great ADs are out there and us “average guys” still get watches, and the idea that every watch in demand goes out the back door isn’t true.

That looks massive on you! LMK if you want to get rid of it, I'll pay you back in full for your out of pocket cost.

JK congrats, it looks perfect
