Why doesnt AP add a new model to their Royal Oak line??
Why doesn't AP add a new model for their Royal Oak line? The Perpetual Calendar is very nice but pricey as heck. And the tourbillion and skeleton models serves more aesthetics then function.I wonder if they will take more of an Patek Phillpe approach and broaden their functions on the sports line.Maybe a GMT to come??What do you guys think?

5711 vs ap ro?
Dear TRF members.I apologize for creating a thread that has been discussed previously.Whilst trying to add another piece, I find myself really confused between the legendary Patek 5711 blue dial, and the Audemars piguet jumbo 15202.Both stunning as most will agree, and the price difference is not an issue as I am already spending quiet a large amount on either.I really love the dial of he 5711, coupled with its rarity, but also like the presence of the RO.Another thing the Patek has, which may sound stupid, is the fact that it is a Patek.I don't mean to say AP is not a great brand, we all know how incredible they are, and I definitely don't think they offer less in terms of quality, but I can't help but feel that Patek is a different league, and one that many aspire to achieve.Which would you pick?
