If your Sub will be your "beater" then yes I would do it!

Are you referring to my Yachtmaster? Actually, I’ve ordered the bracelet for my Moser. If I consolidated for the Overseas, I think I’d rotate the Yachtmaster and Overseas for work and use the Moser after work and on weekends.

My wife bought me the Moser and my Dad gifted me the Yachtmaster, so they are untouchable, haha.

Yes I would. $28k was the last blue listing I saw. You might get the black from AD for $20.9k and it would go with your white and green dial and eliminate the need for a submariner or other black sports watch down the road.

So the blue dial is basically impossible to find nowadays at retail? Figured as much, haha.

The YM, Moser and a blue (assume three hand?) overseas would be awesome!!

Two tone
Plenty of colour
flexibility of the Overseas straps (and the additional Moser strap you mention)
Rolex/holy trinity/small volume...

If you were ticking boxes you've got a lot of them covered there!!

Personally, I would want a black dial too but depends if you feel the need. Speedmaster hesalite maybe? You certainly won't be rushing out to add anything for a while with those three though.

I bought my black OS at the right time, Dec of 19. MSRP was 18,6 or 18,9 not many left when I searched but there were a few, blue, black and silver at retail, I wanted black and with the help of a friend on TRF we found a new one in NY (said their last one) had it shipped overnight with a good discount.

Secondary on the blue dial 3 hander is now pushing 30k.

It’s my understanding you can’t buy one currently at retail. They are not taking new orders until they can fulfill the orders they have.

Yep, I was told when the next one was mine they would call for the 30% deposit. They seem to know what's coming about 3 months out.

Wow is it really? That's crazy I wonder if there are any takers.

Also, has anyone heard what they could be releasing in a few days at Watches and Wonders? Curious how hard it will be to get those watches.

New 1921 historic for the 100 year anniversary! Not sure about Overseas but maybe Corey Richards model

raclaims · 6 April 2021, 06:03 AM

I’m sure there’s some cool stuff coming

In the meantime I’m enjoying this guy

Was at the VC AD yesterday and he said at least 2 years before they consider taking orders on the blue dial 3 handers. The black dial is pretty special too so its not a huge loss.. Blue dials being the hype swept through the range... went PP, then AP, then Journe now its claimed VC

I saw one for 28K, it took 3 days to sell.
There is a waiting list of several months, even years, and the rest of the equivalent trinity is no longer available.

In any case for the blue dial, it sells above the list price now...

Welp, I pulled the trigger! And got really lucky in the process. I visited my local AD, who recently moved to a new space and, apparently, just became a VC boutique! Because of this, they were able to order me a blue dial three-hand Overseas. Should be here within 6 months. I’m over the moon. Thanks everyone in this thread for your great advice!

To be fair, the blue dial on the 4500v is not your typical blue dial. It’s pretty remarkable.

Wow! Congrats in advance Sir!

Have been scratching my head on the rose gold one for a few months now, hesitating with it and the white ceramic royal oak PC... And now this one.

Can't figure out if I prefer the white or rose gold one but in any case they are both absolutely awesome.

And hats down to you on pulling the trigger. Please post some pics!
