Incoming 50th anniversary 26240ST
It's been a great year of incomings but this is the cherry on top of the cake and what is hopefully the last one for the year. The perfect match to my girlfriend's silver 15550st from earlier this year. Major thanks to our SA who is just brilliant and looking forward to what's to come next year

Thanks all. Hope Q4 will bring 50th pieces to all who want one but still have not received one. Looking at you Mini2

Thanks! Well no since we told our SA that we had already ordered one so they had to get creative with the gift and found the double watch roll that's perfect for our pair of 50ths.

Thanks, it sure is! And good catch, I've got the black dial Offshore 43mm, the Code which is grey somehow, and now the silver/white ROC to complete the chronograph trio with one from each collection. Looking to diversify the collection next year...

a 43mm offshore as well, what a solid collection mate, and yes really looking to diversify next year, a leather strap watch for certain formal events which a code 11:59 would be perfect.

Here they are side by side, the chronograph trilogy - one from each collection.

Thanks again everyone.
