Great watch. I really like mine. Bought it Grey for market price and have not looked back. I also saved a bunch of time and effort trying to deal with AD's and the watch is now worth more in trade than I paid for it. Go figure. Same with my Hulk, Blue Sky-Dweller, White Sky-Dweller, Black Sky-Dweller and it gets silly with percentages on the Black Dial and White Dial Explorer II's. The only one I am sitting in that is static is a SS Daytona-C Black face. We are all free to do as we please but sometimes it might be better to go Gray than to do without.

Sure, I'm happy to share!

This is the 3rd watch for me from the same AD who has been great to me in the last 3 years, first walked in a cold call from the street and had a 116710LN within a month.

I've also bought a Bluesy for myself and a bi-metal for the wife, and been on the list for this for around 9 months, I was shocked to get one quite so soon.

I got the call last night for this piece, so didn't hang around and collected today, not quite the same experience with masks etc, but the watch is gorgeous!

Congrats! I reluctantly agreed to pay AD close to grey prices and still haven't gotten one yet.

Congratulations. Great watch (when bought at MSRP).

I'm also hunting. It will take time but I will get there. Thank you for the encouraging feedback.
