It's Been A Long Weekend......
Have a cool watch incoming which was to be on my wrist on Friday but didn't end leaving till Sat...very frustrating but it's on it's way now, so exciting times are ahead. On another note are any of you guys going to the watch & jewelry show in downtown Brooklyn on Monday/Tuesday. Let me know if you'd like to meet up at the great smorgasbord of watches. 🍻

5146G-001 Purchase/Ordering Question
Is the 5146G-001 a piece that would be readily available from an AD or boutique; or is it something that would need to be ordered with a wait list?

You would only be doing your portion of the process. Then the item would go to someone else for the next step.If you were making dials, you would be doing the same thing day after day. The dial making process and the dial painting process and the dial printing process are likely done by different people. Can you imagine the pressure of dial printing? How about the pressure put on the QC team? Tolerances are extremely tight and unforgiving. Precision is required. It is probably not wise to show up for work at a Rolex factory hung over from a night at the disco. That would probably be frowned upon.The same monotony goes for bracelet production, crown production, stem production, bezel production, and the production of watch movement components.Standing or sitting all day plating parts or polishing cases would not be th
