Phew, AP to 115620 and finally to 116500LN

It’s taken 3 watches to get there, there was never a truer work spoken than if you know the one you want, wait until you can get it. Don’t settle. Albeit I made some money on the AP which meant I could go grey to get there, but I’m £4-£5K ahead of the market and this is my grail watch, I’ll wear it forever and never sell.

I can’t stop looking at it. It’s my 4th in the collection, and the final piece for me.

A happy day.
