The Unicorn

Difficult times, but I have had my eye on this for a year or so to celebrate a milestone and blue is my favourite colour, never really thought it would come through, I am far from a whale but a consistent loyal customer for 22 years who still has all purchased watches from the AD.

Naturally very very grateful, only a box picture i am waiting till Friday to explore it with a nice at home dinner then wait till the AD opens for sizing, trying to make the moment last.

Happy boy!

Congrats! I got mine out yesterday first time I’ve accessed it during lockdown. You will love it’s a fantastic watch. I went for the white dial as you can see. The bracelet is still squeaking :)

Fantastic, just got mine 2 weeks ago.

Enjoy!

Yes, I am telling you, it may just be me in excitement, however it does seem slightly sharper and crisper as opposed to say my Hulk I bought 4 years ago.
