Ok I will be sure to ask the AD if they are selling me a fake when I pick it up.

Thanks! I'd really gotten to the point I thought I wouldn't be getting this one. So I am hoping the experience will be fun and it will be nice to have a current purchase history with the AD as well, my last ones were before everything got so crazy.

Congrats! Looking forward to the “watch porn” as my wife has come to call this forum. Don’t hate the author, just hate the game.

Yes I did and they made it a really nice experience. They were having a Valentine's Day event so it was fun. I was really pleased with the whole experience. The last ones I had purchased were around 2010-2011 when you just walked in and bought what you wanted out of the display case so this was totally different.

Try using Tapatalk. It’s much easier to post pics.

I started seriously asking for one around June 2024 so right around 8 months.

Thank you! I just took that picture since the AD really tried hard to make it nice for us, I am usually just an order something online type of person but we had a nice time picking it up.

Yes thank you for trying to help me I got the tapatalk thing figured out. And thank you for the encouragement on size I kept going back and forth but ultimately I think it was the right decision for me.

I know this wasn’t the best way to take the picture of trying on the 36 but this is from when I tried it on last summer and I’m just not sure I could pull it off like some women can.

Looks amazing! Congrats again! What size is your wrist. I’m now wondering if 31 may be a better choice. She has a 6 1/4 wrist.

Thank you! I am right at 15cm or 6 inches so only slightly smaller than she is.
