Path to Jumbo

[kaelao]

Hi all! Quick question to the more tenured collectors here on this forum. Recently acquired my first AP, a blue diver and had the chance to try on a stainless steel Jumbo, 16202ST. Incredible watch and fell in love with it and hope to add it to my collection one day.

Question to those who have been offered this coveted watch - how many pieces and which pieces did you acquire before being offered a Jumbo? And are stainless steel models harder to get vs precious metal models?

Thanks all!

Someone else asked this very question a bit further down this page :-)

PM is much harder, with 16202OR being the easiest, relatively speaking. I have been asking for a 16202BA since it came out. 16202ST would be doable, but then no 16202BA...
