Incoming!!! First AP, First RO, First QP...
Over the moon with this one, finally a bit of joy (all is relative). Absolutely love the timeless design the elegance and this perpetual calendar grand complication IMO the mother of all complications as it truly captures the essence of time...

Stay safe and all the very best to everyone!

Excellent, thanks for the recommendation, will definitely go for it!

I grew up in Monaco, watched that 1992 race from my balcony, the fight between Senna and Mansell in the final laps was one of my first F1 memory...I was hooked ever since!

amazing one of my favorites, do you mind me asking if it was thru AP directly or grey? I assume grey since this is your first AP but you never know in this crazy time
