Welcoming my AP

Hey TRF! Ive finally received my 1st AP! Always really liked the black and blue colored tapisserie dials but after googling multiple pictures, decided the blue Royal Oak was what I wanted. So a couple months back I called a boutique, was able to get on the waitlist(estimated wait was 12-18 months), and a few friendly exchanges and two weeks later, my salesperson called me and said he had one allocated to me by the end of the year! I needed to put down a deposit but I was ecstatic and felt foruntate to be allocated one in such a short amount of time. Finally, this past Saturday, he texted me a picture of my blue 15400 and it arrived this morning. He mentioned it was the last blue they were receiving this year, but who knows. It took a total of 2 months and 8 days from the moment I first called and got on the waitlist (yes I did look back to see how long in total I had to wait because it seemed so short) and I am overjoyed with this gorgeous watch!

First impression is that the watch is simply beautiful! I’ve touched and felt the royal oak before in stores, but when it’s your own and you can really examine it, you see the superb finishing and the craftsmanship that went into making it. The blue is amazing as well! There are so many different hues of blue depending on the light that it would be impossible to capture it all. I’ve only had it for a few hours but I don’t want to take it off. In fact I’m at home waiting for the wife to get home (also why I have time to write this incoming) so we can go out somewhere and yes we’re definitely going somewhere because I need to take this baby out

Here are some pictures and I also received a couple swag gifts.. couple polos and a cap! And no I still have not taken the plastic off yet
