Grail Acquired!
26326ST

Just thought I'd share my recent catch, the Royal Oak Chronograph Tribute to Italy. Although I liked it on the rubber strap, my plan all along was to buy a bracelet for it, because, well, Royal Oak!


That Panda goodness

Somehow I didn't take a distance shot with the rubber, but here is a closeup.

To me this dial is a little like the "Paul Newman" of ROCs.

Congrats on a very beautiful piece! I like it better on the bracelet. And that blue/white dial pops with the two distinct colours!


Thanks,

Thanks! I really love it! A little paranoid about scratches, but once it happens I'll relax.

I thought it comes with a navy leather strap? I think it looks best with that.
