Unexpected call!

I got an unexpected call today to pick up a 5167a. To be honest I forgot I was on the waiting list. Come to think of it I asked this past summer and kind of forgot. They told me they got an unexpected allocation of one that just came in and gave me a call. I’ll be picking it up sometime next week and I’ll be sure to post some pics. Sadly I may have to consider thinning out one or two, but maybe that’s not a bad thing as I think I’ve reached my maximum amount that I can still have and enjoy. I’m stoked to add this one though, it’s such a cool piece!

Luck is on your side- it's such a great piece. I know there are a lot of preferences within the Aquanaut line; but they are all unique and great.

It’s cool when things work out Josh. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the Aquanaut.

Congrats, it’s one of my absolute favorites in my collection . Even better in person and on the wrist than in pics.

Congrats! That's an exciting surprise. It's such a great watch. I kick myself for not buying it when I had the chance in Paris a few years back.
