Unfortunately, for blue dial Overseas money, there are so many other options out there.

Silver dial is even more underrated. A total strap monger.

Thanks. Wrist is approximately 6.25” so I barely pull this off in my view. I’m on the last hole on the rubber strap. Looking into a short length strap.

Found out the TSO went up to $180k+ 🥹 Biggest price increase of all the references, I believe…

Seriously kicking myself for not pulling the trigger when I was offered it before the prices went up. (I am being scrutinized heavily for some work stuff.)

Oh well. Happy Friday, all!

Absolutely gorgeous combination.


Man if this watch would come in 36-38 mm range I'd be all over it.

Had the chance to try it and it looked like a plate on my 7.5 inch wrist.

I love the look of the new Panda but wonder how the legibility is vs the reverse panda…have not seen it in person though. If I had the opportunity to purchase at retail even at $35k I think I would jump at it! I think I would still go for the reverse panda if I had a choice… my $.02…

Give it another try! My wrist is 7” and I think it fits well. 7.5” definitely isn’t too small for this piece. But, clearly you like smaller watches?

That looks lovely. Just curious, is that an OEM strap or Delugs?

Thank you! It was a customized OEM strap from the VC boutique. Leather was handpicked from Jean Rousseau. Waited over 6 months!

Amazing versatility and a great piece on rubber. But, whoa, it is something special on bracelet.
