After trying to build a relationship with AD... (Incoming)
After buying 3 DJs and a few jewelries, and getting nowhere or no time allocation, decided going grey for a blue jubilee skydweller!

p.s the blue dial is even more stunning irl, & sorry for the bad pics

Very nice. Congratulations.

I went onto my AD's list yesterday for that watch. All I need to do now is live long enough!

yeah grey price, I've given up spending much more without uncertainty from the ad, considering that the bluedial skydweller is in the higher tier to get, almost like the white dial daytona.

Congrats. Same as you, after nearly 2 yrs waiting I know myself nowhere to get it even though I am on the so called list. Got it from grey and it is really a beauty.
Wonder will have Olive Dial in the future

Harder than white daytona.
Price is increased 4K GBP in 5 months. Sigh

First off, congratulations! It's a gorgeous watch. I got mine last week. Also, thanks for sharing full honesty how you got it. No shame! I got my 116500LN from a grey for 35k last August, and it still feels like a great purchase, and won't get rid of it anytime soon.

You picked up an amazing time piece. Mine says hello to yours!

that's right... they receive less pieces in Blue SS than a Daytona White SS. Confirmed by my AD.

Do you know why? I know SkyD is always less stock but is it the blue colour more difficult to make? Or just the demand because of the hype?

man seeing these posts makes me want to go gray for the Blue SkyD. But double the price is preventing me for now. Maybe get a YMII to hold me off for now.

Looks kind of big on your wrist. How about more pics to get a better view.

I’m not going to blow smoke up your ass. Sorry it looks far too big for your wrist.
