Sanity Check - Anyone own more than 1 Royal Oak?
I currently have a 15450 white dial and strongly considering adding a 15202. Don't plan on flipping the 15450 just enjoy it too much. So anyone else own more than one such as a Jumbo and conventional Royal Oak or same model RO but different colors? Or will I be the only nut out there?Thanks All -
