A dream day at AP
I’ve been lucky to be invited for a private tour of the AP manufacture and museum, and this was my best watch related day ever! Absolutely amazing experience with the fantastic AP crew! We saw case and dial production, no pictures allowed in the productio...
Great visit, thanks for posting it!
I am guilty of not posting much after I visited with my Family in June. The Museum is so incredible, and innovative. A worthy visit for all AP enthusiasts, and watch fans in general.
That’s an awesome homecoming for your Starwheel!
Thanks for the fantastic pictures. I was on the Purists tour in 2006 and that was great but the revised hotel, museum and facilities look like they have taken it to another level! All the best, Jon
Wonderful pictorial!
The Concept Watch 1 is to me historically the most impressive, it looks as contemporary to my eyes as the day it was released! An astonishing feat in and of itself. Of the many hugely impressive watches you posted, the Travis Scott (no clue who that indiv...

AP a dream come tru
A learnable visit is always interesting. The rooms were it all began. Impressive. I learn a lot of AP, and i see interesting models that could be my first AP. All things start little and odd to see some similarities. Not that i go to start a manufacture 😎...
Amazing post!
Many thanks for sharing this experience and the novelties! Planning to visit this summer! Cheers Peter
Outstanding! I'm so happy to read this!
Not sure if you have been yet Peter? I actually hope you have not, because the first time is always the best!
Hi MichaelC...would be the first time!
And since seeing your original posts decades ago (funny it's been that long!) it has been a dream of mine. Now I got my wife into AP too so now we hope to both visit, eyes wide open! And maybe, make something special! Cheers! Peter
