Yep, as I mentioned the text was updated. Some of the text was updated correctly which was incorrect before, other incorrect parts were updated to something different that is still incorrect, and some incorrect parts were left the same.

I went ahead and contacted my AD and put a refundable deposit down for it. I'm 2nd on the list. Would have probably been first if I contacted them Sunday when I knew I wanted the piece but have been waiting for live pics and finally got impatient.

It started as SS, than turned out to be Ti... and after 2 days of SIHH we saw even a white ceramic grand complication and all the tourbs but not this 42... the right nickname for this model might be "The Ghost"

Not sure at this point.... I find it weird that no blogger has posted a live picture yet. However, I emailed Harrods and got put on waiting list for both 42mm in the hopes that it is stunning.

We're in the same boat. I've even started messaging pages that are there

Stoked to see it will be in fact Ti. Just give us the vertically brushed bezel now and it's a homerun.

There’s clearly a Ti reference number allocated to the model so I’m sure it does exist

Hmm...that sounds familiar. Turned out to be a little bit of a wait list for the Daytona.

No, you’re absoltely right. It will be nothing like the Daytona, I just thought it a funny comparison.

I think they’ll be easy to get, and I plan to grab one as soon as possible. I’ve been waiting a LONG time for this!

I like the "grey ghost" name. Named due to it being invisible in pictures :D.

We all got played. AP duped us. 'Grey Ghost' exists. AP told us we can all play with every new SIHH 2018 model but the 'ghost'.

'grey ghost' is the hottest AP at SIHH 2018.

Shout out to I believe AK97 for the 'grey ghost' moniker. AP needs to hire this guy.

'Grey ghost' much better than 'Hulk' 'Batman' "Bluesy'

at this point it's just a dial swap and plus insert ceramic bezel. They could've of put that together on the fly

If the Grey Ghost is indeed titanium, I think that’ll end up on my wrist. If they’re both steel then the Vamp edges it. I’m a sucker for black dials!

I know there’s probably no going back to 42 ROOs for you Neil, but if you did which one of these would you choose?
