Yeah that clasp can be a little tight when you first start wearing it. Give it time.

Congrats

Thank you Sir, the most precious & perfect little gal I've ever seen!!

Sorry for the poor pictures, I had to resize them to 291kb or they wouldn't upload. Photos were so much better on my phone.

Thanks again

Was talking to one of our AD’’s, Going though our list...he suggested the 12 could be discontinued sometime in the not too distant future. The suggestion was predicated on the 240 movement being used in many other watches including perpetual. Basically a mix shift from a business perspective to higher price offerings limiting the availability of the movement for the 12.


What do you guys think. Hds a sharp guy. I tend to believe what hes saying

I can see the logic behind the 5712 being discontinued. However, for selfish reasons I hope not as I’m still waiting on mine!

I haven’t been wearing this beauty lately, putting it on today reminds me what a special watch it really is.
