Code 11.59 chronograph

I purchased my first AP (offshore diver blue / yellow) some weeks ago from a boutique. I really love it. I did not expect to be unable to resist the Code 11.59 chronograph, but the more I considered it and after seeing in person, I just went with it, despite the very mixed reviews of this collection. The self-winding model was not convincing to me, though very nice. The chronograph pulled me in, for better or worse. Recommend seeing them in person when you can. It’s a cloudy day here so didn’t really try to capture the colors precisely. It’s blue and white gold...... Well, I can’t upload photos without resizing, which I’m unsure how to do. Once I figure that out I will post them. Got a message that the server cannot resize.

Congratulations! The more I see the Code the more I like it - definitely a piece that needs to be seen and handled in person.

This might be the first Code 11.59 variant that I actually find appealing. Very nice watch!

A very nice pick up, especially so soon. You obviously don’t believe in delayed gratification :)
Enjoy.
