Thank you. This is great information.

Hi. I ordered with no prior spending hostory, the silvered overseas with black sub dials chronograph in June 23 at the Zurich boutique, and it arrived late nov 23. This was a few months after that layout was launched.

That was the 5520 version with the slimmer tapered bracelet.

Black with white dials likely quicker.

Congratulations Ken. When I was picking up my overseas, I asked the salesmen if he had one for me to try on. He brought out the 40mm and the 36mm. Both fit my wrist so well, like it does yours. Something I would like to add to the collection one day myself. Enjoy!

Just got offered the 4300V today from the flagship boutique in NYC from $151k USD they are doing a price hike coming soon.

Just thought if anyone is interested it is Loni she is my SA and I can connect you she is amazing.

Why I didn’t pull the trigger is I just picked up 2 new pieces. AP 25654BA and a Cartier GOLD seatimer (The Stallone)

I had a chance to try that on a couple months back and it is amazing. The boutique in Seoul had just received it and I could have walked out with it...unfortunately I didn't have a spare $150K laying around.

Thanks
You'll wait but it's not crazy. Make sure you try on this chrono first before committing to it. It's a large, chunky watch, and quite thick.

I was offered one (reverse panda) at the NYC boutique and passed because of the size. (My wrist is just under 7 inches).

Good luck!

Lovely duo; I thought that after getting my 6000, I may not reach for the 4500; but I think they have different use cases.

We will see how the 4500 fares wrt to wrist time.

Ha! Rose Gold Dual Time would have an easier to understand hint.. just saying lol. That said, my buddy from “watchcollectinglifestyle” on Instagram picked up the RG DT very recently. He has some more reels on Instagram.

Superb. The 1955 is the best watch in the line-up bar none. And the platinum is the primus inter pares.

Ahh, I misread the words and thought this was a SS CDV.

Looking forward to seeing the denim!

Guessing Audi with the hexagons…
