Romain Jerome D��a de los Muertos Watch
In honor of the Mexican Day of the Dead holiday known of course as Dia de los Muertos, Swiss Romain Jerome watch will produce two limited edition timepieces. There isn't too much to say about the new watches aside from describing them as they inherently are merely new dials for the brand. Living and growing up in Southern California you learn about the Day of the Dead holiday from a young age given the high population of Mexicans. Though I more or less have a rather ignorant understanding of it as "cool painted skull Mexican sort-of-like Halloween holiday."

grey versus AD
Hi all,I'd appreciate any expertise and opinion. Given that I've never purchased or have a relationship with an AD, should I expect to pay full MSRP plus tax from an AD, or maybe just MSRP? I'm asking specifically for a popular piece like the BLNR, granted I can find one. Aside from the experience of purchasing brand new from an AD and focusing sheerly on cost, I'm trying to figure out at what price it'd be about the same if I bought from a BNIB from the grey market, even if it's marked up. Anything else I'm missing? Thanks.
