incoming 15300!
Hi all!
I have had the 15300 for a few weeks now and an incoming was long overdue! I've seen the Royal Oak for the first time on a window display in a watch boutique in Basel during my vacation and was smitten since, and the more I studied into it, the more I realised what an iconic watch it is. Long story short, I've wanted a 39" due to a small wrist and wanted it new-ish and how lucky am I to have purchased it from a TRF member Armin which made it even more special ! It was close to new and a late 2012 purchase. Perfect! I am in Australia and had a colleague attending the CES in Vegas and had it shipped there. One week later, my colleague handed over the watch and the rest is history! Royal Oaks are a classic and definitely a keeper and it looks stunning. Photo time! I took it to Singapore the next day on a business trip and had the bracelet adjusted at the local AD. view from the hotel Wore it on a date in a Tapas bar in Singapore. Took my AP on another flight to Bangkok Witnessed Bangkok Shutdown because of protests against the government. Chilling at Bangkok cafe drinking Coffee Lastly, waiting flight back to Melbourne in Bangkok Airport Lounge.. In the pace it's going, my AP will be Elite Gold Status in no time! Star Alliance of course! |
