This is gorgeous! 126519LN-002

It's even more beautiful in person than any picture or review. Delighted to have received one of the first pieces of the bright black, silver subdials available. Basis my conversations with AD's in a few different countries I have travelled to, a number of them have not even received one yet! Excited. Anyone else been as lucky as I am feeling? And what are your thoughts on this vs the ghost.

Congrats, it is a beauty.

And no...I haven't been as lucky as you're feeling.

Agree it's a great watch! My AD called me with one in December right before the holidays.

Congratulations

I prefer the black dial for legibility. The hands are lost on the other one IMO

Beautiful watch. Congratulations!!! I love it.

We are not all the same, some like the light dial some the black. There is no right or wrong answer. Get whatever configuration puts the biggest smile on your face.

With regards to any others being as lucky as you are feeling. Yes, I am. I just received this beauty from my AD a few weeks ago. RG, Sundust dial. Although not the same configuration as yours, I too feel over the moon whenever I look at it.

So you like it because it's beautiful or because it's one of the first your AD received? or both? Congrats on your new purchase

Outstanding! Congratulations!
I personally like the black dial much more than the steel dial.

After having both, I agree. The black is more legible by a mile

Beautiful watch! I think if you didn't mention that was YG, I would have thought that was WG.

I just saw a grey dealer advertising/selling this as a...wait for it..."BABY LEMANS". Just when you think things can't get any more absurd...

Wow, this jumps right to the top of the dial option list for me.

Well, maybe 1A and 1B with the matte black, red chapter ring modern "Newman" dial on the YG model.
