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 🥂🥂🥂

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.
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.
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!
