The RB is one of the several most interesting and beautiful Offshores as far as I am concerned. It took me a decade to finally get a Survivor, and it took you even longer to acquire your Offshore, but that gave us time to appreciate all the details and concepts behind the respective pieces. I dont know about you, but getting the Survivor was one of he most satisfyng additions to my collection. I have to say, I miss that period from Offshore history that also produced the carbon fiber case Grand Prix as well as other bold and audacious pieces. I am still thinking about the Grand Prix, and I cannot tell you how much I enjoy wearing the Survivor. I had it on today, in fact. I truly hope the RB brings you that kind of joy as well. Congratultions, once again.

Going back to "Neo-classics"...

Hi all, It looks like the AP bug has hit me again recently! After considering several of the new pieces, I decided to acquire this wonderful "Neo-Classic" Barrichello that represents a special period where AP demonstrated the audacity and avant-garde in t...
The Survivor ruins your theory.

Whether you like it or not is irrelevant. The watch's design and execution took quite a bit of effort and the result is undeniable. And the machining was much more complicated than the Barrichello, easy for anyone to see, but also stated to me by Octavio ...

Hi Michael I also had a similar situation when I bought a Trulli many years ago. This was a really special piece in my mind but at some point I got frustrated with the softening / wear on the case, despite the material innovation with Cermet. So in this s...

I’m sure glad I kept mine all this time. But time flies indeed.

The Rubens Barrichello II in Rose Gold. Another two photos... Just love the bespoke details and ceramic finishings! Cheers Peter ...
The greatest AP EVER...
By: jeff.elmotis : November 24th, 2019-09:11
I love this AP, to me. i\It's simply the most desirable OffShore ever conceived, the bezel screws are very automotive-inspired and I would like AP to adopt these to other watches in the OffShore line.
Thanks Michael...

I think this has elevated my love for AP RG. I considered the RG Perpetual, but the bracelet is a lot of heavy metal. I see this watch as being a lot more versatile and fun at the same time - and less to worry about given the ceramics in key areas and the...

I am afraid I am going doing a slippery (and expensive) slope of getting AP pieces! The survivor and the Grand Prix are two pieces that have haunted me for many years now I bet your survivor still looks incredible - share some pics! Peter
Late, but here you go...

I cannot tell you how much I enjoy wearing the Survivor. It actually makes me hesitate to even seriously consider another Offshore because I am not sure the Survivor will yield any wrist time. ;-) But these pics of the RBII in both metals are really excit...
