Wow, congrats! Had you requested that specific model, or did you make yourself available to anything incoming from the AD?

I went in a month ago to remove myself from the Sky-Dweller list since I bought one grey market and saw this one in person. I asked my sales associate to put me on the list for it along with the batgirl. I kept being drawn to this gmt and I think my sales associate knew I was serious about wanting it because last time I was in I asked for a blue Sky-Dweller. I told her I couldn’t get it out of my mind so I had to go grey because I couldn’t wait several years. Perhaps she knew I was not a flipper based on that. Who knows but I will say that she will get my future business. Already ordered a pair of earrings for my wife after this deal was done.

This, too, shall pass.


Congrats on the great pickup. I was offered and turned down the GRNR because I’m holding out for the 18K model. But I was really, really tempted to buy it. A beautiful TT reference.

Wow this might be my favorite two tone model. I’m not a fan of the color bezels in general so I am naturally drawn towards this GMT. Looks incredible.

Congrats!! I really think the darker SS works well with the YG and I love the black/grey bezel. It looks much better in person! I'm really enjoying mine!
