First AP - 15720

Picked up my first AP this past Friday. Had gone into the Boston boutique several months ago and wasn’t so keen on the chunka chunks available to me. One of the advisors was talking about and had pics of a turquoise one they had just sold to another client. I fell in love immediately. Kept in touch with them and got the text and ran over almost immediately.

I have a dainty 6.75-7” wrist but I feel like it sits and wears well. Can’t stop looking at it 😍😍.

Funny bit - I have geeked out about watches for a long time but just started building a collection over the last six months or so. I had a Tudor Coke and a Longines Conquest deliver the same day and had shared with the SA. Towards the end I asked about the process further allocations (15510) and he just laughed and told me I need to slow down.

First Timer 26240 DDS QC Check

First time exploring a rep out of curiosity and looking at the 26240 since $200k for the gen is quite unattainable! I just got the QC and want to make sure my expectations are properly set. Overall it seems nice, but zooming into the details are interesting. Looking for any input on send it or hold. Thanks!

  1. Dealer name: ModernTimeWatch
  2. Factory name: DDS F
  3. Model name (& version number): 26240 v?
  4. Price Paid: 748
  5. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/m5qkCvY
  6. Index alignment: Seems fine, I didnt get a full straight on shot so doing the 12 (6?) line reference didnt really work
  7. Dial Printing: Seems fine from distance but
  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Good
  9. Hand Alignment: Good
  10. Bezel: Good
  11. Solid End Links (SELs):
  12. Timegrapher numbers: +3 s/d, 307°, 0.2 ms, 28800 bph, 52.0°
  13. Anything else you notice: I added some pictures of zoomed in gen vs this rep:
  • the square spacing and structure zoomed in look noticably different
  • chrono marks are thinner and font is slightly wider
  • the face screws dont seem sharp
  • the chrono hands and pins are different
