    Love the frosted gold RO and the turquoise/Olive divers.
    And the concept is brilliant.

    Purple and turquoise for me. Not that I can afford them!

    I'd like to see the turquiose and green divers in the flesh.

    Looks like the design team got a set of bright crayons from Santa

    Yup, I love the frosted look.

    I have a couple of stainless steel 1970s Grand Seikos or King Seikos (can't recall which) with what remains of a frosted finish.

    It’s the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Extra-Thin RD#2 that’s the clear winner for me. A perpetual calendar at 6.3mm thick!? I’d rather not know the price to be honest, but that’s quite something.

    This is the clear winner for me! I don’t even want to know the price though...

    At last a blue diver, but alas it looks a very light shade.

    Absolutely love the original style Offshore but bet it's limited and massively expensive.

    Thanks for putting so much effort into the thread OP. Much appreciated. : )

    It's a great pity that AP's catalogue is so dominated by Gerald Genta.

    And their other flagship design, the oval Millenary, is awful.

    I really like this but being in Platinium we know it’s going to be pricey!

    The 15202st is around £19k so I’d imagine given the 10k premium on the Pt/Ti RO and ROC over their SS counterparts the ultra thin will likely be around 30k.

    The premium might be less due to the price bracket it will put itself in but surely wouldn’t be less then high 20’s.

    Quite like the mini-LeBron... I think...

    Loving the frosted gold, and the Fume dial watch, but have a suspicion that a few of those bright colour divers will be in the sales :)
    It's just a matter of time...

    More like son-of-third-cousin-once-removed!

    I suspect he would have shuddered at much of AP's current crop of watches.

    Hmm. Think I might have to sit this one out then!

    Like to see the movement on the RD#2.

    I'm with you, it looks amazing and the thickness is a serious achievement.
    Price doesn't matter, can't afford it anyway!

    There is no price!

    According to Hodinkee it’s purely a concept watch and not for sale

    I see, then it will stay a dream for everyone :)
    I love thin mechanical watches, and if this means that AP (and maybe others) will start making thinner complicated watches, then I think that's cool.

    What I do like is the ‘vampire’ with ceramic bezel. Been waiting for the standard 42mm to come with ceramic for a while, so that may be one I look to get.
