Any owners of SLA039 on here and if so, what’s your experience been like so far? I’m thinking about acquiring it

Pulled the trigger a few minutes ago on a brand new one

It should arrive in a couple of days. Will post pics once I get it.

Had the older one with the gilt style. Was nice, pretty consistently +5 which was OK for me. The only real nitpicks were the crown sometimes didn't thread in easily so I always made sure to reverse thread it first, and it was a bit top heavy. Otherwise cool watch

Do you mean SLA025? That’s a cool reference.

Great watch, cool reference and limited, which should help the value long term.

Not really concerned about value retention tbh, especially since I got it with a 45% discount on the retail price. Looks great in pictures, looking forward to seeing it flesh.
