For me it would have to be the 112 - if you want an 'opposite' for your 26 then I guess the 111 is ok, but the simplicity of the 112 (And the 219) win hands down for me.

Then again....

In reality I would most certainly chose the 219 because it's SO different (And SO rare) - but you've already got a destro...

My 'grail' is the 217...I could actually imagine selling pretty much all I have if I found a decent one...

I now feel like this !....where is it, where is it? ha ha

Great choice (But then I'm not biased at all ) 400 in the 'K' and the same in the 'L'...oh so rare.

Very nice...I was going to say the 111 (as that is what I have ordered), but congrats anyway....

When do you get it?

sweet, i'm in asia atm but had to drop in and do a congrats! i would've went with a totally different choice but ultimately it's your money...your watch and your enjoyment.

UK dealers i'm told, get just one 219 a year each I hope your dealer isn't overly confident about being able to supply this.

Either way a good choice, i'd like one but the waiting lists are just too long to bother and i wont pay grey dealer premiums.

Enjoy (when you get it)

It is indeed that one, they are hopeful for another as they got precisely zero from 08/09 production

this is their 09/10 one!...worth the wait imho
