Got the call yesterday
Was out of town on business yesterday, when my AD calls and tells me he has a 5712 for me. Drove straight from the airport today and picked it up. Beautiful! Can’t believe how slim it wears. I also have a 5726 and that feels much more hefty.

Love it, don’t think it’ll be leaving the wrist in the foreseeable future...

Not that long, let them know about a month or two ago that I wanted one. Wasn’t expecting it this early at all, though. But when opportunity knocks...
