Ap secured.... with 12 - 18 months wait.
In uk there are no ap boutiques listed on the ap website.... there are However 8 retailers and 1 service centreI called most of them today.... 3 didn't answer... presumably busy with clients... Marcus - the previous go to place is now closed (as reported here)I was specifically after a 15202 stI was told my name was added to 2 waiting lists - no problem according to ap uk - who also pointed out that the London boutique was no where near launch at this time.... mostly tho I was told first come first served was the usual M.O. for handing out the near mythical 15202 when it arrived in the shop....with something like 10-12 units being the total uk allocation... then with those that had paid deposit being at the top of the call list....Once I was told a deposit wouldn't be taken as it's not fair on me because in real terms the wait was in the order of years!!Then a stroke of luck I have been able to come to an agreement with one dealer, that I am no.2 on their list. The watch allocation

5164 for 116619 (Smurf) ???
Hello all,My current small stable consists of a 5980r (gold on croc), 5164, 15202 and 116610lnI like the 5164 and it wears quite well but I'm toying with the idea of flipping it for a 116619 Smurf. I do like the 116613 but simply cannot pull of the all gold look at the office and while its a great piece I would be extremely limited in when I can wear it.I feel that the Smurf may be quite versatile and I would most likely move the 116610 (as having both is a bit redundant for me)...not sure what I would then do as a travel/beat around piece as the 116610 serves that role quite well now.I would appreciate hearing any thoughts on the above. I'm open to to suggestions as well on what to replace the 116610 with if I make this move.TIA !

I can't get enogh Patek....
Incoming. Very happy and my first All RG watch. Still realising what this piece is...
