Back to Singapore #2

2 AP ROs marked special occasions for me - the 16202ST and 15202IP - different context, both serendipitous and all happy.

Both are very different watch in terms of materials, dial colors and certainly the movements.






The old JLC Cal 2121 , while quirky, was charming and represented an iconic chapter for the “jumbo” that is now closed.

It’s hard for me to be a one-watch person. Thanks for looking 🥂🥂🥂

This gives new meaning to “power couple”…

a significant number of distinctions (as you pointed out) really make these wonderfully complementary. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Armis!

Wow. And I thought you couldn't do better than the 16202...

The IP is spectacular! I thought having a mirrored bezel would be less harmonious but I think it goes very well with the aesthetic and dial. This is another reason why I am really curious about how the 16202XT Red Dial will look like on the wrist... Cheer... 

Thanks Peter.

For sure the XT’s bezel does not scratch as easily as the IP - mine has tons of micro scratches because its platinum. And of course, AP does fume really well. The XT will be stunning on the wrist.

Sensational!

I tried to buy an IP when it launched but missed out on that one. It's a fantastic Jumbo variation!

Thanks Michael.

I was indeed very lucky with the IP.

Congrats on a fantastic couple!

I would be more than happy with only one of them 😜

Soon I hope and all the best!

Thank you!

You never know, but I see it as a mid term goal. In the short term I have another couple of "more urgent" objectives 😉

Indeed! 👍🏻

I do feel the same way.

The old caliber is a pain in date adjustments and that’s the charm. Now a relic of days past.

I love this duo! Top!

Thanks Gordon.

AP does fume very well and on the petite tapisserie, the deep blue to black is accentuated. 🥂🥂🥂

Marvellous IP!

They are so different yet so very alike. One is lucky to have one but to have both is incredible! Stunning pieces! Hope to see more of them!
