Wow! Stunning. Looks great in this pic and I am certain this pic does not even come close to doing it justice.

What’s the retail on that piece if you don’t mind sharing?

Spectacular, especially as a doublet with your 15551!
It is interesting that the 1mm size difference between the two is noticeable, unless it’s just the picture angles. Do you notice the difference?

Thank you! Yes, I can see the difference. I think because the 15551 is thinner so it noticeable even only 1mm.

Congrats on a beautiful piece!

If you don't mind me asking, how many pieces did you buy since May last year when you asked whether a code is a decent way to start a relationship?

At least 2 full rose gold 15551s AND the code AND now the BC Chrono or did you also sprinkle in others?

Congrats! I particularly love the baguette hour markers against the fume dial. Really well executed!
