Unforgettable Experience @ Marcus Of London

Paid a visit to Marcus of London to pick up my YG Blue ROC and the experience was SUPERB ! With unprecedented access to some fantastic pieces.

Can't say enough Ken. Great staff, especially Ash. Ask for her if you decide on inquiring. They are losing their AD in a week as AP is opening a London boutique and the pound is in the dumps good reason to pull the trigger.

Another Amazing fact. Marcus of The Marcus of London store was or maybe still is the biggest collector of APs. The RB2 RG is from his personal collection. The grand comp ROO was built for his store 1 of 3 pieces. This one is his. The contract he had with AP was so slanted in his stores favor that when AP announced an LE his store would receive the bulk of them eg the store got 15 Schumi Ti & 10 RG.

$1.32 to the GBP this AM. Huge savings potential.

Bet that was an experience you won't forget!

Did they have a 15202st available? Just put my name on the list at Watches of Switzerland. I'm number 41

The new AP London boutique is opening next week then? Any word on location?
