Congratulations, that's a major piece and in fact my personal grail. I'm 28 and am hoping to get myself one of these for my 30th birthday. I prefer this reference to the Datograph- not a fan of date complications personally. Such a beautiful piece.

Thanks / awesome grail level piece. If I’ve read the other thread correctly
The chrono went up 2k on 4/1. Lucky for once.

Stunning watch - truly world class. It's a grail piece and I can't think of anything else at or above that price point I'd want. ALS got everything right with this reference.

You must be thrilled, congrats!

Cool to see you wearing it with jeans and sneakers. I think people get caught up too much on what's a "dress watch" and what's a "sport watch." These days you can pretty much wear anything.

Any thoughts of putting it on a tan strap?

I have a blue strap from my old 38.5 1815 that I will try eventually. I saw one with a gray strap that looked awesome. I put a dark brown next to the watch and was kinda meh on it. I’m really not a tan strap guy.

The top straps are cool, don't like the texture of the lower grey one.
