AP issues?
Hi everyone,Not trying to stir the pot here but I'm seriously considering to purchase an AP, however, I'd like to hear the cons too. I currently have a Rolex TT dj41, and I would like to purchase a second one for my daily wear. The Diver, ROO elephant, and blue dial RO are my options. However, due to the price point, I want to make sure that I fully know what I'm paying for, or I stand to lose a significant amount of money if I end up with buyers remorse. I stumbled upon this YouTube video and I've read some of the complaints about AP too in the comment section of the video. https://m.youtube/watch?v=oN4TY7opDyoSome of the negative comments include: 1. Bezel scratches easily. The metal is soft compared to the one Rolex use. And the shape of the case and bezel makes it a scratch magnet. 2. The watch is not as great looking if not in pristine condition. E.g. Multiple scratches, etc 3. You are paying for prestige versus value for the watch as watch is not as durable as Rolex and has some

Is this an authentic AP ?
Hi,I can buy this AP second-hand but it has no papers/box and I can only see a limited nr of photo's. The seller seems thrustworthy but he's not an AP expert. He doesn't know the model nr of the watch for instance (he also bought it second hand).It's a 39mm AP and from the pictures I'm almost sure it's a 15300ST.Wdyt?There seems to be one link missing. I think a new 15300ST comes with 23 links (and this one has only 22 links) ? Is it correct there should be one link more?But I have a 7inch wrist so this one will still fit I think?It's a G series AP, so this would make it a +- 2009 watch, right?Most important question: is this an authentic AP? To me, as a non-expert, only the clasp seems a little suspicious...Thanks in advance!
