Thanks so much everyone! Appreciate your kind words.

I have had a few people message me asking about price - I purchased it 6 weeks ago - 2021 brand new with stickers for just under £46,000 which is $61,967

Not sure if we were watching the same one. Haha. I was thinking and at last I did not pull the trigger, I couldn't find any right now and the price seems to go up a lot

You’re gonna love it…nothing else like it. Only thing I would trade for would be meteorite baguettes….maybe?

I am new to the forum and new to watches in general. As a teenager/young adult was always fascinated by watches, scrolling catalogues/websites etc but did not have the means to purchase.

Last year for my 34th birthday I purchased my first ever Rolex from an AD- Datejust 41 two tone with a black dial. I was completely aware that this was not an "investment" piece so to speak, but I purchased it because I admired the look and feel of it. I wear it daily, super comfortable and love it.

Day Date

12 months on, I was lucky enough to be able to purchase my second watch. I was keen for the Day/Date with the olive dial. My AD encouraged me to purchase jewellery which would help secure it for me at retail, but as a single male I found this difficult as I am not too keen on chains or bracelets for myself. I decided to hit the grey market and despite paying well over retail feel it was the best decision, as the waiting game I found frustrating and did not have hope I would ever be allocated the watch.

Attachment 1255900


Having no previous purchase history I completely understand that popular pieces with any brand can be difficult/impossible to secure . I have enquired and put my name forward for a Royal Oak 37mm at an AP boutique, but the staff member was quite dismissive. I am really liking the look of the Patek Annual Calendar so would love to try one on and perhaps establish a relationship with the Patek AD in my city.

Thanks for all the general help and advice on the forum, I have been lurking/reading for a while - your advice has been much appreciated!

Congrats!

Yes I agree!! Meteorite looks fantastic but do like the contrast of the olive!

Sounds like we were watching the same one! Feel lucky to have pulled the trigger as they do seem harder to source in the UK now - hope you manage to get one soon!

Incoming Day Date/Olive Dial

That be a bargain! Considering appreciation in value!
They probably keep the old dial? Yes
