Browsing at AD

Had some time this weekend to visit a local AD. They had a much nicer selection than two others that were closer I normally browse. The others didn't even have a DD40 and no platinum selections to look at.

They even had the new Black Bay, which they hadn't even taken it out and inventoried it yet...until I asked. I was surprised they still had one.

I'm pretty sure, I know what my next purchase will be...

Even the sales person thought it was funny that I was looking at 2 platinum pieces then asking to see the BBB.
