Congrats. It’s good to know that they still allocate to and take care of true fans of the brand.

huge congrats on an awesome watch and sounds like a great boutique experience!


I actually feel very similar to you about AP and the watch industry right now. After the Beverly Hills boutique told me to pound sand (multiple times) and I would have to start over with them on status I've taken a decent break on purchases. Bypassed on another grail to put the money into the house for the family to enjoy.

Sad state of the industry.

You made the right decision putting the money toward something surely will bring happiness to you and others!

Yeah, I am not one for bundled deals, though I will say the perpetual code is not bad. Case is something they can build off of, just need to work on those dials and hands.

Indeed.

Thanks for sharing this story. I hope having this piece on your wrist brings back the passion you once had.
Yes, though not sure my wife thinks the same way.
