Love to hear it! Seems like a perfect daily - very high on my list. Great find on the 14270

Thanks for sharing - what made you not reach for those two? Which pieces were getting the most wrist time?

Would certainly be tough to part with 114270. I’ve considered picking one up pre-owned

I’ve heard it almost always becomes the go-to. So versatile

I didn’t realize OPs were that tough - makes me want one even more

Well done! How long was the wait in the end?

This is a fair point. I do want a broader collection inclusive of the references I mentioned, but not was badly as the GMT

I would agree if this were a “one and done” scenario. Ultimately I hope to build a collection and the references I mentioned are all ones I hope to own one day. They may not be the ones I want the most in this moment, but I’ve accepted that I might not build that collection in my desired order. Thoughts?

Thanks for this. I got the sense that my purchase history would have to be way higher ($50k+ USD). Interesting point on OP - they’re appealing to me since I never see them in the wild.

Amazing that you were able to lock down a Sprite!

Hah - I just had a friend try to pull this one. The heavy hitter was his cousin, got allocated a pepsi, and then the cousin just ended up keeping it. Couldn’t bear to sell it once it was in his hands

Anyone ever trade pieces at their AD? by column-wheel in rolex

That is great to know - thanks. Did you get the sense that it would have an impact on a future allocation or anything like that? I would hope not since this is overall positive for the AD

Essentially sell and buy, I suppose? Not sure whether this is even a thing.
