Giulio Papi Explains The New Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Laptimer Michael Schumacher Limited E
We took our first look at this watch just last May, when Audemars Piguet announced it – and we said it then and we’ll say it now, we think Audemars Piguet deserves a great deal of credit for sticking with their association with Michael Schumacher, who despite his ongoing struggle with the catastrophic injury he suffered in 2013, remains, and will always remain, one of the greatest (if not the greatest) figures in the history of motorsports.As we also said then, the Laptimer Michael Schumacher is a phenomenal technical achievement, and to help us all understand it a little bit better, we were lucky enough to be able to get a full description of the watch from none other than Giulio Papi, of Audemars Piguet Renaud & Papi, the well-known, ultra-sophisticated horological think tank that’s given us some of the most interesting watches in the world – as well as some of the most interesting watchmakers (alums include Carole Forestier-Kasapi, the brilliantly prolifi

Not a big deal I guess, I think i've just been spoiled by the silent Rolex rotors.

Can someone please explain if the modern Nautilus case differs in size on different references? I recently tried on a 5712 and it felt a lot thicker than I remember the 5711 being when I tried it on.

Why make so many Datejusts?
I've been on this forum for a few hours now and can't remember seeing any Datejust threads. These watches are just not in play at all even as new relases, so hope Rolex take a good look at the forums and SM hype, and see they need to drastically alter production to suit where demand and interest really lies.
