Incoming!!
Just over a week ago while I was in Orlando, I sat with my AD to discuss some of my pieces of interest and to narrow it down to 2-3 pieces on my wishlist.
The following day a mate and I were back at the Mall and walked past the AD and I waved to the Manager that has helped me for a few years. I saw she wasn't that busy so we went inside to have a chat. She invited me into the Private Submariner Room and then proceeded to introduce me to a New Sales Assistant, as the SA that I had bought my last piece from (Oct 2022 Z Blue Milgauss) had moved on. Rob left the room for a few minutes and came back with a Box, I had no idea what might be inside. He slowly lifted the lid, peeled back the box, and showed me a Mark 2 Starbucks that was stunning. I was so grateful for the opportunity and knew it would fit perfectly into my collection. Very Happy Collector:)

Were there any Submariners in the Private Submariner room?...or was it like the old strip club saying "There is no champagne in the champagne room". Nice pick up on the watch, love the green bezel!

A new Boutique in Orlando and they have a room out the back they call the Submariner Room. A really cool private room for you to collect a new piece.
