Nice 👍 and congratulations. Btw why some of the outer box the cream color has cut out on the front and some don't?

Standing ovation for you sir,
Trust you are prepared to have an over developed left arm and as a result a killer left cross punch from carrying that magnificent weighty piece!

Woow. That is a huge jump. Top of the food chain.
But if you wanted an iconic Chrono, the Omega Speedmaster Professional could have done it and it is a bit bigger.

WOW!!! 1) HUGE congrats! It's my fave watch of all time!! 2) after a 31 year hibernation, you came out swinging!! 3) get your deposit back on the 116500
This is comparable to driving a Dodge Dart for 31 years and all of the sudden showing up with a Lambo.......
