Very cool! Congrats!

The way the pic was taken makes the YG look very light (almost steel actually). Post some wrist shots when you can!

You’re right, it has an almost WG look in certain lighting. It’s less flashy than my twotone bluesy.

Correct. Let’s just say six figures this past year.

I’m lucky that my AD only sells watches, and I only buy what I like.

Congrats!

I ordered a Patek 5990/1a on Tuesday at 1:25pm and got the call 18 minutes later from their driver asking me where I wanted it delivered. I was like, “Heh, why so slow?!?”

Someone from the UK posted that his friend qualified for one after 1 million spend history. This of course will vary from AD. Some ADs might get 1-2 per year, some less depending on size. So although spend history isn’t the only factor I would imagine you would have to be one of the ADs best customers to qualify.

Congrats and enjoy. Lol; all these recent Daytona and gmt incoming threads make me chuckle. Amazing what a Dow and crypto collapse along with massive interest rate spikes can do. All the sudden, hmm just like that there is new stock in. Well how do you like that.

Haha, doubt it. She first looked at the daydate malachite some time ago. I think she generally likes the green/gold combo.
