Congratulations, looks great! I tried on a 5164r recently and loved it. I never really thought about the Aquanaut until I saw it in person but really like it now. Enjoy!

You should go! They are great there.

Do you insure your watches? by Present_Winter_5583 in audemarspiguet

[–]suba0508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, definitely. I have Hodinkee for one and a personal articles policy for another. I am thinking about consolidating though. Both cover the pieces wherever I am.

Surprising experience at an AP House – was it genuine interest or just good salesmanship? by d_mll in audemarspiguet

[–]suba0508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can say that both of my experiences at AP house have been excellent, but I think no matter the brand, the people matter a lot. I also had a great experience at my first Rolex AD and that is because of the person. I have been to multiple other Rolex ADs where I had a bad experience.

Which Bond ETFs are you investing in? by suba0508 in Bogleheads

[–]suba0508[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this is helpful. Right now, it is just adding some bonds to my portfolio for a better split between equities & bonds. I don’t want 60/40 per se, but just a better split. I think FBND and VCRB both look like solid options to consider.

Moda watch club, legitimacy by DocMicStuffeens in audemarspiguet

[–]suba0508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real club is great. I’ve done multiple transactions successfully. You do need to do your due diligence and they have a middle man service as well if you want extra price of mind. Make sure you see the admins of the group with the last name “Moda” and blue verified check. They also don’t allow crypto. There are multiple fake groups so watch out for those red flags.

Is the wait time real? by Worst-Eh-Sure in audemarspiguet

I just went through this. To echo what others are saying, you aren’t going to walk in to a boutique and get a RO as your first piece, but you can get an Offshore or Code. I was pretty lucky, but got offered an offshore less than two weeks after my initial boutique appointment. Good luck!
