Exhibition piece arrived!

Some news is good news. I wanted to try on a specific light blue offshore and my AP store SA texted me saying one exhibition piece came in to try!

At least I can now try it on and wait instead of imagining

Glad you will get to try it on and see how it fits.

As an aside, it's a bummer that this is where we are at w/ AP -- getting excited that an exhibition piece has come in that we can try on and see how a watch which we may or may not ever be allocated fits.

I was at the boutique this week and they received a ton of exhibition pieces.

Including a 16202!

In Boston? I'll need to visit them, maybe bring some champagne - that would be the first time I see an AP in that store, other than on my wrist or that of the (very nice) SAs.

Update, they had some exhibition including what I’m wearing here:
Obviously nothing is for sale but was nice to try on what I wanted

Seems they keep passing this piece along from boutique to boutique.

Interestingly (for me), I feel this one goes better with the light blue strap.
