Completely agree.

I am off travelling again shortly but will be posting more pictures in due course. The weight is fine and it is clamped well to the wrist with the well designed deployant which also balances a little of the weight. Will put it on the scales in a bit as soon as I have recovered from the AP last night.

Thank you everyone for the kind words.

Yes sorry I like to do a little teasing along the way! Both models are now discontinued. I am not sure how many platinums were produced in the end but I would guess probably less than 100 and maybe 250-300 rose gold. Just a wild guess though. I might ask them to confirm - they are much more open on this sort of stuff than Patek.

Very nice - I didn't realise the platinum came on a deployant. I assume the RG also has the same? Would love to see a pic of the inside of the wrist showing the deployant clasp done up. Possible?

I wouldn't mind the deployant for mine, I didn't realise that's available either - I bet it's about 15k though.

Way to go Roger - doing it in style as usual.
Big congrats on two amazing pieces
