Can one walk into an AD and buy one of these or are they affected by the “shortage?”

It was the blued Romans that did it for me. I was having trouble deciding between the quadrant and cross hatch dials, but the blue Roman’s really set it apart.

Ordered my 40mm DD, champagne, diamond markers 4 months ago. Still waiting ;-(. Agree it's the most beautiful, classic DD.

Enjoy! I hope it turns up soon.

Funny though, I went with white/romans instead of the older preferences you quote.

Have you had the champagne? Because that's what I thought before the impulse buy, but legibility has not been an issue whatsoever. I am relatively young with good eyesight, however, so YMMV, but if you have not tried it don't let it deter you. Taste is another matter entirely.
