You might as well place your order now, Hani. You know you're going to buy it eventually.

 

I think it's absolutely gorgeous, that's what I think.

 

It's sick, and a must for any Offshore fan this year
If I had the money I'd get it and wear it this year on and off (too showy for every day use) and then sell it off for the next big limited edition offshore when it arrives at the next SIHH.

 

Get the replica. It works better when you wipe your ass...


Carbon fiber is officially played out with this watch.

 

I wanna say it looks great, but really, its OK.

 

Sold one yesterday, cool piece.

 

Black with central blue is cool, but not a must IMO.

 

too much going on Gray I think you'll be tired of it after a month

 

very cool, those limited edition offshores are a lot of bread though, i think the regular royal oaks (offshore and non) are cool enough, limited enough and a good value
