More bubbleback love
Just thought I'd share these pics. Changed to this riveted bracelet this evening, just for a change.
Ref. 2940 (204,XXX).

Thanks. The bracelet is from 1954 and is tapered, so it's not precisely period-correct, but what the hey...

£35,000 for a 2940? Sounds like wishful thinking. This one (all original and I believe unpolished) cost about $1700 a couple of years ago, then another $700 for a Bob Ridley spa/service.
Now that this thread was resurrected, I suppose I should wear it tomorrow!
