Thanks for sharing!

Is it in the small shop in the EU departure hall or in the Rolex store in the Intercontinental departure hall?

Blue Milgauss and YM II are less hard to find than most other SS models in general. I’ve seen quite a few in the past year.

But they’re definitely not always available, just more than others.

There was several yacht 2’s. The usual ex 1 and AK. The usual yachts. A green blue and a white milguass. They brought the blue out to me in the coffin like it was something special. Even if it were I don’t care for it and have no interest.

Not as hard as subs in my experience. I’ve seen explorer1 a couple times in the past few months at different ADs. SS Subs not at all, except for TT Subs.

Mmm 5k for a brand new Explorer I've been thinking more and more about that watch and I'm flying through Schiphol tonight!

But that's the price flying out to non-EU countries, no? I'm flying to Stockholm:(

No that should be the price regardless of destination (well used to be)

Discount was VAT equivalent but not actually VAT

It used to be amazing in the good old days, before the darkside
