I feel like I've come full circle with AP...
So for those of you who know me, I've been absent for a while from the forums. I just felt like doing a braindump on my past year with AP watches, if you are bored without any football or golf to watch, take a minute to read.Around this time last year, I posted a question about what would be a good first AP. Most people pointed me towards to the new 44mm ROOs, while many said go for the 15300 or the like. I quickly dismissed the 15300s, as they were, back then, to me boring.Over the past year I've developed a strong love for AP. My complaint with watches in the past is that they were too one dimensional. The overall look of the watch was the same regardless of what kind of lighting situations you had etc., so at the end of the day, the watch always looked the same.At heart, I don't like consistency in that respect. I always like to tinker, like to see things change.My first purchase into AP was the ss 44mm. It was exciting to see how the intricate finishing of the steel would change to

two watch collection
I've been spending too much time on this forum and it's bad for my health. Considering consolidating my collection to two watches. Flipped the 5167a since it didn't sing to me quite like I had hoped, and same for my offshore. Been thinking about the 5164, 5167r, 5712, AP 15202, or smurf sub. JLC Jubilee ultrathin platinum would be the other watch. I'm waiting for the 5711, but it's been a year at my dealer still with some others ahead of me, so im not going to hold my breath for that one. I'm also particular to the dual time of the 5164, and the chocolate dial of the 5167r. Smurf sub seems like an ideal only watch, but I was irritated by the flak I got for my 16610lv just because it was a rolex (even tho I never got comments on my ap or patek or jlc). Just curious what everyone's thoughts are.

Agonizing Wait for SD43 Ended Today.
I couldn't have handled the stress much longer - thankfully the wait is over.I visited AD Springer's Jewelers in Portsmouth, NH on 2/27. I've no purchase history at all with these folks. I was wearing my 5512. Every two - three months, their Rolex Rep visits. He was there on 2/27.They had one SD43, but it'd been ordered by another customer. The sales person said she'd order one for me, with a probable six to eight week delivery time. Then the Rep entered the discussion - very interested in my 5512 and obviously impressed I'd owned it fifty-two years. He said he'd get me an SD43, soon.I paid a 50% deposit, stopped at the drug store for a case of Tums, and went home to worry and read more TRF threads about unpleasant AD experiences and wait lists.Early this afternoon, 3/14 my sales person emailed four words, : Your watch is here. I was astounded. As it turned out, so were they. Les, the Rolex Rep kept his word.The SD43's not at Springer's now, because it's here at home, on my wrist. I'm

Daily Hulk
Hi everyone, I own my Hulk since 2 weeks and I'm so happy that I waited for it instead of buying a black one almost immediately available. The sunburst dial is so special. It never looks the same. CheersAlexEnvoy�� de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk
