Thanks! Should be here within the hour. This is my first journey in the world of AP. Like Tom Petty said, the waiting is the hardest part!
For now, passing the time watching tv with the trusty SkyDweller... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks everyone! I’ve had this watch for an hour now, and I couldn’t be happier with it! The reservations I initially had when trying to decide are completely gone. The off-center date window doesn’t bother me at all. In fact, I kind of like it. Gives the watch some character.
I was also a bit concerned that it would wear a bit too large. I tried several on previously, but that was playing with my head while I was waiting for mine to roll in. Actually, it feels smaller and better fitting than my SkyDweller; perhaps because it is thinner. This watch definitely has that “yes, but look CLOSER...” property that John Mayer mentioned in his Hodinkee interview. It feels aggressive, especially compared to its 5711 cousin, but not obnoxiously so. The way it plays with light is mesmerizing, particularly the bracelet. The dial is very chameleon-like. The chrono pushers are silky smooth to operate; very easy to push. Here is a lume shot-probably the most brilliant lume in my collection: And here is the current state of my collection, with the new arrival front and center with its Genta brethren: Now bring on the scratches!!!

No. I’m hoping for some swag when I get it fitted, though!

I will have it fitted at the NYC boutique, the same one that shipped it to me, on Friday, and hopefully they will shower me with gifts!
