Icon7 Took a while but finally got my first AP

Long journey but it was worth it in the end
Funny but I was offered one in June and I passed because I wanted the green (khaki) version. A week or two later, I went in to visit my SA and saw the grey dial in person and fell for it. I loved the versatility of the color so I asked for it instead lol. SA was very patient with me and just told me to sit tight. Got it a month or so later and now I'm over the moon

Cheers!

Thank you! When I was offered the grey it was via text and I couldn't go see it that day. My SA needed to know right away if I wanted it or not so I just passed. Luckily he was able to get me another one after I saw it in person Congrats on your Diver too

Welcome to the family ! The diver is a very nice reference. And yea, agree with you that grey is more versatile as compared to khaki and blue . Congrats and enjoy it.
