So, the Antarctique Ice Blue Rattrapante was announced today.

The subscription orders will be taken on April 2nd at 3PM CET exactly, Central European Time. So 9am Saturday NYC time, 6am Saturday West Coast time.

If you want to order a Rattrapante, I advise you to be ready, in front of your computer at the subscription time to be sure that you will get an allocation. I believe it will not last long. Last year it took less than an hour to be sold out, I expect this year will be MUCH faster, even at $56,400. The first Rattrapante was less, but these colored sapphire discs are difficult and expensive.

There will be a $15k deposit, and shipments will not occur until all the first edition Rattrapantes have been delivered, hopefully late 2022.

We have indeed established a completely separate team to assemble the rattrapantes, it will not slow down production of the Passage de Drake three handers.
