Grand Comp back on the wrist with a tweak

 
 By: Conkers : December 14th, 2019-18:01
Had the bezel swapped for ceramic for its resilience given I am going to be wearing the watch a lot. Very pleased with the new look. ...  

Was great to see it yesterday!

Looks absolutely outstanding with this change. Not that it was exactly bad before! Congrats n this one. Totally understand why you’ve done this tweak and kudos to AP for accommodating the change. 👏

Totally awesome Conkers [nt]

May I ask the size as it does not seem overly huge on your wrist

44mm, like most Offshores.

Conkers, it’s bonkers!

Another epic watch among a bunch of epic watches. If push came to shove I assume the APs stay and the PPs go? Or is it that simple?

I had the same question in my mind!

Roger, always glad when you share your marvelous watches with us here.

Thank you everyone!

Yes the original bezel is rose gold - see the photo below. I can swap back at any time. Thank you for the kind words. Yes Pateks not getting a look in at the moment! Too many watches to enjoy at once! ...  

Solid result. I like it.

Well done by you and AP!

Thanks Michael! Agreed! [nt]

Great idea and even better look!

I think AP can do a lot by adding more scratch resistance in their bezels - it's the iconic hallmark of AP and it's ironically the first thing that gets marred by normal wear. Hope they consider to infuse more Ceramics or scratch resistance into their bez... 

Hmm interesting...

Is AP done with cermet or is it only for broader runs?

Looking good Roger

Thanks Colin! [nt]

Fantastic Piece

 
 By: mark1958a : December 28th, 2019-11:47
I do like the original bezel at least from the Photographs I have seen. This sure is unique but the piece itself regardless of the metal or bezel is quite unique

Thanks! Here is the side by side.

...  

Like both

 
 By: mark1958a : December 28th, 2019-18:06
Probably slight preference for the gold but would take either Well looking more closely -- the black ceramic does provide a bit more contrast so really hard to say which I prefer...

That looks great! [nt]
