Congratulations! Beautiful FF
I forgot the difference between Series 1, 2, and 3 for these. Was it just the region they were sold in?
Thanks for the confirmation!
I recall lusting after them when they were first released, but way out of my budget at the time.
Just came back from Blancpain NYC
...and the tropic strap will not be available until March! They told me that the Barakuda is a new watch and “parts” for it (the strap is a part) won’t be made available until March. Oh well, I guess I’ll keep it on the bracelet until then 😃
