Now 'til... ?

Pre-emptive reply: I do not know what extras, if any, come with the 50th "Patch" model over a traditional Moonwatch, only that it costs $1,000 more. Additionally, I asked why the White Gold model was $6,000 more than the other Gold models, he said that White Gold is harder to work with. [I don't know, I'm just relating what I was told...]

Discuss or not... Just don't punish the messenger.

Oh, and if you want to get one from our Favorite Dealer, you'll probably have to order it. I don't believe he plans on stocking them in advance, with hopes of selling them.

Good Hunting!
