A Brief Report of my AP Royal Oak Chronograph ref.25960BC in White Gold & Salmon Dial

 
 By: orangedial : June 5th, 2016-12:27
Salmon dial is an acquired taste. I happen to LOVE it. I was lucky enough to have bumped into 2 outstanding samples of the Royal Oak with salmon dial. I did not get to keep the first one for long, which was a huge regret. Now with this 2nd piece of salmon...  

Huge congrats, Wayne!

It is a stunning watch! Is it from the actual collection? I always loved salmon dials, the first one I have ever seen in my life was a Daniel Roth chronograph.. Wear it in good health! Yours, Adam

Thank you, Adam!

Yes, AP made these salmon dial ROC in WG many years back and I believe in low production number. Salmon dials are alluring to me too

Love to see this dial on your wrist again!

Your original APRO jubilee killed off half the forum members here... and now this beauty! Wonderful! Thanks for sharing this piece and your enthusiasm for it... I look forward to seeing many many more photos of it! S

Thank you, S!

Stunning photography.

That watch looks outstanding on your wrist. It has much more personality than the typical white dialed version. I almost bought a Breguet XX one time a number of years ago that had a salmon dial but didn't as I wasn't sure I could pull it off. You photos ... 

Amanico has a Breguet salmon dial if I recall correctly...

And it is in platinum. A very beautiful piece indeed As I've said, salmon dial is an acquired taste and if it sings to you, let the hunt begins! Thanks for tour well wishes, Tony, and good luck hunting! Best, Wayne

Something like that?

Excellent! Nice to see her again...

A recent wristshot would be great

Something like that?

LOL ...  

Yes that's the one, although...................

The one I looked at buying had a platinum bracelet as well. Haven't seen that before. Yours looks great BTW!

I for one love the salmon dial. Surprisingly, it seems to go well with any sleeve colors!

 
 By: Luis6 : June 5th, 2016-16:41
And thank you for mentioning the bracelet details. That is cool!

Thank you my friend!!

Yes, I'm glad that the salmon dial is rather versatile, which is a surprise to me too!

Wayne I really like this AP RO chrono

Pride of ownership...

I can tell you\'re in love with this beauty - much deserved second chance to get hold of a salmon dial RO, this time the Chrono AND it\'s in WG! Love the heft when picking it up and wearing it, it\'s really something else... Congrats to have pulled the tr... 

Thanks again, buddy!

 
 By: orangedial : June 9th, 2016-20:03
Yes, it was fun picking up the watch together and thanks for the good advice and support given. Always appreciate your generosity in sharing your wealth of knowledge!

Nice detail in the crown

 
 By: andrevmsilva : June 6th, 2016-12:35
You got lucky with that crown. Is really nice to see that AP logo up right. And I agree with you, this feature is a should-have to all watches at this price point

Thank you DrStrong ;) [nt]

Congrats!

Amazing shots! Really rare catch, congrats to your rare salmon! Loved it!!

I'm gone a few days and miss this whale!

 
 By: MichaelC : June 8th, 2016-12:46
Our tastes are so similar Wayne. I have thought about redialing mine to this Salmon, and ordering a honey brown gator strap. I think it would look so superb! But to have it on the gold bracelet as it came, and original, well that is the tops. I regretted ... 

Thanks for your compliment, Michael!

 
 By: orangedial : June 9th, 2016-20:18
This is the best AP ROC in my book, a worthy substitute for my long gone salmon jumbo. The WG case and bracelet are exceptional, which make me miss my salmon jumbo lesser. But I have to admit that sometimes my heart still skips a beat whenever i look back... 

great looking white gold chrono
