Spectacularly beautiful piece, congratulations.

I'm with you on the OF train - I just think there's beauty in its simplicity.

Wait for the AD or go grey?

Depends which model you want as some OF’s are barely over RRP at grey dealers. The ‘ghost’ and ‘pikachu’ are quite a bit over but the rest aren’t.

Guess it depends how quick you want it.

Personally, I’d wait as I like the reassurance from an AD that everything’s perfect but that my OCD!

Yeah it’s beauty. Getting use to my first rubber strap but all my other watches are oysters or jubilee. But I also bought a rose gold wedding ring to match it since my current wedding ring is white gold. I’m anal haha

Went grey since I’m impatient. If I get it from the AD I’ll just sell the one I went grey on and keep the AD one since it will be newer.

2024 rose gold Daytona with the Sundust dial that I’m seeing on Chrono24 is around $44-45,000 before tax. So even this watch I bought is going significantly over list.

Both are nice - if you want less "bling" which is a good thing the oysterflex is the way to go.
