Missing my Royal Oak 5402SA!!!

My vintage RO 5402SA and my wife's RO were due for service. This weekend I shipped them to Clearwater and I am missing them so much!!

Can't wait to hear from Betsy and get the estimate on the service. I know it won't be cheap, especially for my 5402 that needs a major overhaul and bezel refinish. I will keep you guys posted on the progress.

In the meantime please don't post any pictures of Royal Oaks cause I'll get nostalgic!

That might be a good time to get your watch a new sister.

You guys are the worst instigators!!! I already have a huge addiction to this expensive hobby and here you are fanning the fire!!!

I have the itch so not sure if I can wait till the RO makes it back.

First of all I need to thank you all for being the 'top instigators' in the world. Second, I need to thank DAVIDSW for closing a smooth transaction with me on a gorgeous AP Royal Oak 15300 Blue Tappiserie. Can't wait to put it on tomorrow.
