Congrats! I know that car maintenance can be a money trap, but this takes it to a new level! .

Great little watch
Why would someone pay $23.000 for a steel blue dial sky dweller ? ...looks so similar

Most impressive in the metal! Feeling blessed for this lucky day!


Side note, it came with the old warranty card, so I’m wondering if it wasn’t a safe queen for some time that got put out.

Is this the EXACT same watch you saw at O'Hare??
