A slightly spontaneous INCOMING !
I decided fairly recently that I "needed" a 116710LN. Having visited 8 or 9 ADs in Paris last week I finally found one at full list price. Unsurprisingly, they wouldn't budge on the price....so I went home without it.
I'm now in Italy, and today I popped into a small town AD. They had the watch, and we're nice people. I explained that I know how these things work, and that I'm familiar with Chrono24. I said what I was prepared to pay, and left with the watch. Back in my hotel room and just finished the lovely process of sticker removal, so here she is, and we're off to eat some pasta!
