my friend.........feel like having mine already

[tim2012]

Understandably so. Enjoy the watch. No, I mean Christmas really!!

Excellent pictures of an excellent watch. Enjoy your Christmas.

Beautiful the strap really complements the face. Stunning watch

[fraggle42]

Looks lovely apart from the date, it looks so recessed it makes it look like a cheap rep.

Why do AP do this?

Excellent pictures of an excellent watch. Enjoy your Christmas.

Ditto - the dial looks stunning and the strap compliments it beautifully

There was me thinking that's a really nice watch... I wonder how much they cost?

Nearly chocked on my espresso!

Honestly... a nice watch and the strap is a good match :-)

Looks nice, is that movement based on a Valjoux 7750?

[Chomega]

Fantastic photos! What lens to you use; I'd love to try and achieve something even approaching this quality.

(the watch is quite nice too )

Looks nice, is that movement based on a Valjoux 7750?

No it bloody well isn't!

That gold rotor is part of AP's in-house 3120 which is used as a base for the Lemania-designed Depraz-Dubois chronograph module. Just about the nicest integration on the market.

Stunning watch.

I've always loved the dials on the AP's.

Jealous?? I am yeah!!!!

[mk1974]

It's a beauty

[bry nylon]

yeah that dial colour is very nice.... brown lume ?

Why do AP do this?

I shared the same question when I first looked at it and my friend told me that the sapphire was polished inside to achieve the magnifying effect therefore, casts an illusion of depth..still searching for some info online...

Lovely piece, wear in health

No offence intended, it was a genuine question based on the subdial layout.

Very nice watch indeed, if I were to own an AP it would be either the scuba or this. (£650 for a strap I believe!!)
I agree with the comments on the date indicator,and for me, the treatment where the opening for the date passes through the textured dial leaving an irregular shaped opening is just ,well, wrong imho.
I see minor details like this, which I don't like on a number of AP that I have yet to see on PP or Vacheron Constantin, or come to think of it, Lange or GO.
I'm sure your friend is chuffed!
