I’m sure these look gorgeous in person and I wish I could see them now. Somehow the photo/lighting made the grey look moss green and sickly to me. Please share more when you can. Can’t wait to see more photos.
 
Oh thank you!! Thank you for sharing your post once again! I am still trying to catch up with the forum, I am really backward in this regard.

I feel like the diamond with the black and white is very similar to the New York limited edition, and I don't know I have a mix feeling about mixing Onyx with diamond. Maybe I already have the Onyx with white gold from thanksgiving, this particular release doesn't do anything to me. Yours is a 10 motif was available back in 2017 and you got it already!!? I have been waiting for the 50th anniversary but I couldn't stand the wait so I got the Onyx with white gold when it came out. I really hope they have something bright, or something that I can't say no to. I got my hands on the Lapis watch, and I am really desperately wanting something to go with it without going to Sotheby's
They will be offering lapis for this 50th anniversary commemoration as well but just later. Don’t go to Sotheby’s just yet!

GMOP does have that quality on some pieces. I’m not so keen on the green flashes myself and searched high and low for a pair of earrings with taupe pink flashes. In the magic range it’s okay because it’s only two motifs amongst onyx and white mop, they complement each other (and downplay those moss green flashes), but I wonder how the actual motifs will vary on these 50th pieces. Perhaps seeing the actual thing will wow me, but right now I’m not sure I like the idea of alternating pave and stone. I feel it’s neither here nor there... I think all GMOP might work better.

Oohh please do post pics if you can!

Hi there- I didn’t want to ask my SA since there were plenty of ppl at the store today and he said it would be open to everyone on May 1st ... I will say the pieces are TDF! I was curious on the combo for the RG and the GMOP however the piece I saw - the GMOP is light and incredibly iridescent , making the pieces very soft and sophisticated. I’m in love!!!

Oh thank you!! I actually saw something unrelated and was very tempted. Anyhow, I am going to hold on I think they know what I want and he dropped the biggest hint and just asked me to wait. I hope you guys who are looking for something fun will be offered and get your hands on them! Not going to Sotheby's anymore

Did you hear something else? Interested to know... so far, two out of the three stones being offered has come through (I shared this info back in early Jan). Was told lapis is still coming but much later than these two offerings.
I was in a waiting list for buying lapis watch and my application was declined, after that I asked several times if there any chances that lapis or turquoise would be offered later for 50th anniversary, and my 2 SA (in 2 countries) didn’t confirm such probability

I don’t dare to say for certain that my info is 100% but I see no reason for my source to make this up. They’ve tried to keep this quite tight lipped and I myself shop in more than one country. From what I know, it is still coming :smile:
