Enjoy the journey of buying what you don't want and what goes for much less right when you walk out so you can eventually buy what you desire! Gotta love the watch market now lmao.

I think you should recalibrate your expectations on what’s realistic.
Simply walking into a boutique to drop your name down isn’t a cheat code to get any highly popular piece you want…
the rumored new RG version is going to be so hot

life's beautiful.

Which RO tourbillon? Burgundy dial steel, titanium, or steel with the smoked blue dial are fire. Expensive fire, but fire nevertheless.
