AP paying AD's to stop selling watches?
I know everyone was a bit shocked that AP pulled the AD status of Marcus a while back, but it now appears they might have actually paid out over ��17 million to have them stop selling their products by canceling the contract early. Very odd. I wonder if all the other AD's are getting similar payouts as there are a ton of them being pulled at the moment?Cost cutting to add low cost lounges instead of boutiques makes sense in this context.watchpro/audemars-pig...ion-agreement/thoughts? I know Marcus also sold his personal collection of AP to the AP museum but AFAIK that would have not been tied up in his companies profits. But, maybe it was and thats the explanation for the pay out.

Ceramic diver in the UK
I'm new to AP so this may of been common knowledge to you guys!I'm going to view a SS diver but also wanted to see the ceramic but have been informed since its boutique only and in the UK we don't have one then the ceramic diver is not available in the UK! Contacted what I thought was the UK AP boutique but later found out is was AP UK LTD and the lady on the phone their wasn't overly helpful and also corrected me straight away when I said I had heard its a discontinued model, saying it was only introduced around a year ago why would it be discontinued!Spoke with AP customers services who also corrected me when I mentioned I had heard its discontinued and they told me it's a current model and still in production! The guy was really helpful but said he would have to contact AP UK to see if they could get one in for me, found that slightly odd AP CS had to ask AP UK about getting the ceramic model in! He came back within the hour and said no unfortunately AP UK cannot get it in and I wou

Yellow & Black... Another BEE? Not quite...
They are rarer! Tried on these two babies yesterday. They are sweet The details are really intriguing.Jalan Bukit Bintang (JBB), also nicknamed KillBill due to its yellow/black theme, is a commemorative model created for the AP boutique located at Jalan Bukit Bintang (Star Hill Street in English) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The blackened hex screws on the bezel, bright yellow numerals and hands as well as the stock yellow strap with black stitch really stand out!And the End of Day... don't think I need to further elaborate its rareness and collectibility. Scrutinizing it while holding it in my hand was an amazing experience.Personally, I find it interesting that these 2 watches share the same yellow & black color scheme on the main dial and hands, while interchange the similar colors on the strap & stitch, as well as on the bezel and hex screws. AP has been able to use just yellow and black very effectively to create some amazing ROO models!Enjoy the pics!
