AD visit

I was in town and visiting my AD so I decided to check out their inventory. I was glad to see a new 41mm royal oak since I hadn't had the chance to try it on. I was also my first time trying on a forged carbon offshore, wow, that watch is amazing. They also had a panda on the bracelet, a bumble bee, and quite a few others but I only managed to get wrist shots of these 2.

I loved the forged carbon, but I doubt I'll be picking that up anytime soon. The 41mm RO is certainly something I can see picking up next year possibly.

I was in Philadelphia visiting my friends at Govberg. Their AP case wasn't too big but they did have pretty much every other brand under one roof.

It was fun. We also checked out the Barnes Foundation museum while we were there. If you're an art fan and in the area, I highly recommend it.

There will be an incoming thread, possibly tomorrow assuming it was shipped today. It'll just be on another brand forum on here.

This arrived today, a limited edition of 50 Breitling Chronomat 44 with the in house movement made exclusively for Govberg Jewelers. All brushed with the display back, the perfect Chronomat in my opinion.

I'm sure my AD can give you a pretty good deal on it. If you're interested, I can get you his contact info.
