Thanks! I've been wanting the chrono for a long time but didn't like the last iteration that much. The Petite Prince version is beautiful. Better pics to come. Dealer gave me a good deal and I just recently sold my 3227 to my dad so, just was the right time.

Damn, I have been eyeing that one off for a few weeks (with no possible way of picking it up :lol: )

Congrats, it looks great.
