the watches are nice but slightly on the larger size. I there are options from 40mm-42mm would be great

Ah it actually wears quite small due to the short lug to lug length at 49mm. I think some 42mm watches have a L2L of 51 or so

Cheers!

Hello, until I have an idea on a significant meaning/design to embed onto the movement, I will be leaving as it is. Haha. I would prefer the older mono block design though, but the changes to the face layout on the 40th anniversary makes up to it which looks similar to the first 5402 Royal Oak.

Very happy with this piece, but sorry about my wallet. :( I paid retail for this piece, however with current market climate I am sure the price is open for discussion with AD.

I like the current skeleton rotor.

you're scored a rare, iconic watch grail - not just any royal oak but THE JUMBO ULTRA THIN ROYAL OAK - which will never go out of style and whose value will always be well maintained on account of its limited rarity, iconic status and general, all-round design and quality winner!

congrats and wear it in good health! :s12:

I bought the piece from the boutique, thus the price is fixed. :( There were gifts and the service rendered was top notch. I heard AD does receive from time to time, although rarely. I must say the waiting list is long too. So I pulled the trigger when it was offered to me. Hoot first, think later. ��

were you brought to the top floor of the boutique and served champagne to congratulate you on your fine purchase?

oh and portrait of your lovely watch with all the gifts please! :D

current retail S$30k?

Hi HWZ!

My name is Chun Wai, and I am happy to announce that my microbrand, Jubileon, will be launching on Kickstarter on 30 July! Jubileon is named after the Golden Jubilee celebration last year, although we will be rebranded as JSG for subsequent watch series.

Our first watch series is the Superellipse, which is a premium Swiss Made automatic watch. It has a unique industrial-looking design, with a combination of the beautiful cushion case and screwed-down bezel. The name of the watch is inspired by the superellipse curve, which is the mathematical representation of the cushion shape.

Good effort !! Nice Job !!

No offence .. like the watch case and overall design but the hands chosen look a bit off (weird) to me .. not really suitable for your watch case.... but its only me lah ......:D

Anyway wishes you have a great success with your launch !!
