Unexpected Purchase.....
One of my local AD,s called me early this week to say that they had just received 1 Green Dial Sub Ref 116610LV, only one profesional model was delivered. He also told me that to keep things fair they were calling other customers and it was a first come first serve situation. I told him that I would stop to see it.
I had never seen one in person, I always thought that it was cool but that it was too flashy. After seeing it and holding it in my hand my opinion changed in a split second. While I was driving to the store I called my wife and sort of set the stage just in case, as always she was supported. Her words..... “if you like it, get it”. I arrived at the store within 30 min of the phone call, I had the watch in my hands for about a minute and I told the sales person to run the paperwork. While doing so another two guys showed up... the rest is history. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
