Fantastic!

I have also ordered the Nebula Blue with steel bracelet! My AD carries both A&S and Parmigiani and have offered me the option of switching to the Tondagraph if when the Nebula arrives, I am not happy with it. When is your estimated delivery date? I have b

A surprise early Christmas present!

My wife and I stopped by our good friends at Oliver Smith in Scottsdale to say "HI" and collect a couple of straps we had ordered. I knew all about the limited edition they had commissioned for Oliver's 40th anniversary but expected them to have sold out
