Incoming Gorgeous 126622

I've been in love with this watch for a long time. So it was an unbelievable way to start the New Year. The rhodium dial is so gorgeous, it reflects the light beautifully in different light sources. The case shape and polished center links make it dressy and sporty at the same time. This reference is extremely popular in Japan (I was told) and my AD mentioned they only get 3-4 a year. So both grateful and excited to share these pix with my fellow TRF'ers.

This has to be one of the most under appreciated references in the catalog. Looks fabulous, congrats!

Congrats Looks great on you and it is a beauty.
I have been thinking to add this reference, but at the same time don't want to have more than 4/5 pieces in the collection.
