New York Exhibit Celebrates 40 Years of Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Audemars Piguet’s iconic sports watch with the octagonal bezel, the Royal Oak, turns 40 this year, and the Swiss watch firm plans to celebrate the milestone in style, kicking off a touring exhibit of 100 rare Audemars Piguet watches, set against an artistic multimedia presentation showcasing the brand and its history, with an opening engagement this week at New York’s Park Avenue Armory. Click “Read more” for photos from the exhibit.In 1972, with the quartz revolution gaining momentum, Audemars Piguet caused a stir in the watch world when it introduced to the market a luxury sports watch with an ultra-thin mechanical movement and an unconventional, octagonal steel case, at a price point that at the time was unthinkable for any watch not made of a precious metal. Despite the naysayers at the time, the Royal Oak was not only successful, it influenced the look of many other sports watches that followed it and has become the mainstay of the Audemars Piguet collectio

In an effort to just use my new watch without worrying about scratches on the PCL's, I changed the band/deployant :)The new band and the tool.And the outcome.And finally some wrist shots.

5070 or 3940+ALS timezone
Hi-Been going back and forth on which PP to add to my small patek collection, which consists of two perpetual chronos and a minute repeater tourbillon,(i inherited those pieces a couple yrs ago and never wear them...) I have a gold daytona i wear daily, but would like to add a dress watch thats not flashy....So i've narrowed it to the 5070 or 3940... still debating between the two, the plus with the 3940, is i could squeeze in the ALS timezone as well, which i love... The 5070, which is a gorgeous watch, + ALS would be a bit too much to justify to my accountant :) would love to hear your thoughts on 5070 vs 3940+ALS..Also, a question on 3940... The 'rotor' on the back, I've seen some are inscribed with the calatrava insignia and others are not(they just have a 22k)... any significance to either? thanks!and sorry for another, which one should i buy thread :)

Question/Help Pam514
Need to get my fellow forum members thoughts on the Pam514.I love the look of the watch and it fits my wrist nicely.Just wanted to know other peoples thoughts on this watch...Are their other models I should considere at this price point that would be a better choice?I currently have a Pam380 and love it but would like a in house movement.

I hate this forum!!
Actually I'm jk but it sure makes me want to spend money. I have the Red ETA BB that I'm currently selling and it's all because I have an opportunity to buy the Black version. Why the hell do I want to do that?? It's the same watch lol. Decisions, decisions. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
