Only went in to the AD to have a look...

And came out with this!

But I only went in to have a look at a Tudor Black Bay Heritage (burgundy bezel).
Tried that on and it was lovely. Then tried on a Pelagos (black dial) and that was a bit too big for me. Then the AD said that only that morning they had received a brand new Sub for a customer on the waiting list. They had only called the customer that very morning who had decided he no longer wanted it and would I like to try it on?

And the rest is history as they say..
Last Saturday was a very expensive day, but I haven't stopped smiling all week!

Good score. Bummer for whoever was next on the wait list though.
