I started ignoring these threads..But I got THE CALL! Finally

Well it seems like a long wait but the day came today and I wasn't sure if it would given the enormous popularity AP has in the last few years. But my SA came through for me and my 1st PM RO piece!

Sods law when I came to paying for it my credit cards started to malfunction and block me but after a couple of calls to the bank it was all complete.

Even more chuffed that its the 50th anniversary, I love looking at the movement and my other RO have closed casebacks. I would often walk into other watch shops in HK and they would be surprised I'd be spending so much time looking at the movement

More pics coming..

Well worth the wait. Patience always pays off and the call always comes sooner than expected, or in your case, if expected at all :D

I say go for it

Not only are they great pieces, the diversity it provides in your collection may help you with harder allocations down the line.

Yes! I didn’t really have a clue about the price increase so it’s a nice little bonus

For those in the know how often does this happen, is it annual/every 2 yrs
