That escalated quickly..
Hi guys! After being an enthousiast for a while, this weekend the moment I became a watch owner was finally there! Having had no previous luxiourious watch, You could say I went from zero to a hundred acquiring this ap 15400 as a "first watch". But It is the watch that instantly captured my imagination 2 years ago, and has never left since. Literally a dream coming true! Shoutout to my homie @Arjan93 for helping me get a very good deal!
 For now I remain in the new watch honeymoon phase! Cheers

Great looking watch! Massive 0-100 escalation for a first watch..
Can't wait to exchange wristshots on random locations at random times as we did on the bridge yesterday ;D Wear it in good health  Stoeltje voor stoeltje.

A lot of folks waste a lot of money before realizing they should own a Royal Oak. Good on you for realizing it quicker than most. Congrats.

What a fantastic first watch! Very smart to go straight for the dream watch rather than wasting time and money "building up to it" like a lot of us do.
Enjoy! |
