Just curious, you were able to find an AD with one in stock and not spoken for?
That's pretty lucky these days.

yep. cold calls sometimes just work i suppose O_O i was very lucky in my decision to make that ONE last phone call. i honestly was ready to give up after a few hours of calling and being placed on hold while stock is checked only to be told there's already a long waiting list.

Congrats on your great luck, and even greater first Patek. And good for you for sizing your own bracelet!
