Just got the call on an og bb58!!!

Just got the call for a piece that I have been after for a while. I live out in West Texas and we don’t have an authorized Tudor AD out here so I have had to search elsewhere in the state at places that I have no history with which makes it much harder as AD’s rightfully tend to take care of their regular customers first. Just last week I was in Dallas at my regular Rolex AD putting a 50% deposit down on a new Silver OP 36. They don’t sell Tudor or else I would just deal with them. To make a long story short, Friday my wife is making the 5 hour trip back to Dallas to pick up my new BB58 since I’m tied up with the business. It’s not ideal to buy 2 watches in such a short span for me but I realize I can’t say no because due to my long distance dilemma it may be another year before I can find one at retail. I’m definitely done for the year though! I’m just thankful it’s finally happening. I picked up a 39OP at the beginning of the year in Prague and they had a BB58 as well that I had to pass on and I have kicked myself every single day since. But now I can finally announce that THE WAIT IS OVER!!!!

Congrats! The black bays are definitely starting to grow on me. I've been holding out for a Harrods.
