NWA - Royal Oak 38MM Chrono
I have stopped wearing my 26480Ti due to allergy. Happy to finally grabbed another chrono, and this time, a piece that fits my 6.25" wrist.

The proposition is just perfect, feels like wearing the Zenith Daytona. Very thankful to AP Boutique staffs in Nagoya, they are amazing to work with.

Were you already on the waitlist for the 26315st or did the boutique help you given your allergy? Very nice of them if they did

Have you tried a leather or rubber strap on your ROO? Shame to not wear it or to sell it because of your skin reaction

Grey one is so much nicer in person but you’re pics do it justice. Congrats!

I wasn't on the list. They tried very hard to find me one, and they did after I told them about my allergy - my gratitude for their assistance.

Yup, I tried leather (actually i just tried a titanium bracelet today, it is definitely causing my rash)

I’m still in the process of building a relationship with the Ginza boutique but went grey two days ago and pulled the trigger on a 15450 blue dial. Would love to get me a panda 38mm from the boutique but only a dream for now.

Ginza boutique people are awesome too, they are very accommodating.
