Missed the Khaki Field Auto immensely during my vacation over the weekend. Slapped it on a namesake-coloured nato today and although it works, I think it's truly at home on an olive green canvas strap. :)

Wow this is like striking a small lottery. Enjoy the watch and it's capital gains.

Waitlists do exist. You’re just at the lowest priority without any prior purchase. A buddy got one recently as well through a SG AD after at least 2 years of waiting with no relationship towards that AD.

Fact - AD will also not give you 0 seconds..

Just hit and miss at this price point.

Had to jump through a couple of hoops to land this, but well worth, it's a beauty in person.

Gerald Genta's octagon design legacy lives on in the Royal Oak, the Nautilus and the Aquanaut, all testament to the "lucky charms" our SG $1 coins truly are.

I’m doing insanity and p90x, skipping all core areas and only doing the wrist exercises, hope can see results soon!

haha yeah even the teeny winnie 5167 is too big for me, but meh, i’ll just let it hang loose. time and tide will make me fat enough to wear it proper, no doubt about it :)

Give yourself at least 3 months to see some results.

Or you'll grow into it over time.

Hi all, I'm currently looking at Omega Speedmaster Professional. Possible to get a BNIB with 5k? How much does it cost in an AD ah?

Nice grail! Just curious, why is the box so "cheap" for a watch that cost so much?

Oh that plastic box is the shipping box, the watch is so called “double sealed” but Patek doesnt sell watches sealed anymore, it has to be opened. the watch box itself is quite hefty.
