And as promised near my birthdate AP has delivered the 16202st

As usual superb customer service and above all fellow purist Patrick was present though he did not see the watch as I had it sized and
(added a one and half link ) shipped immediately for tax refund purposes . The unique part is that each watch comes with a handwritten and signed limited 50th anniversary certificate which is new and different from Ap .. wish they had a cool box for it ..nevertheless the winding is smooth on the new Calibre and date change is unbelievable 😂.

Exciting pickup, congrats. It's great news that the movement has been upgraded, eliminating one significant technical limitation (the date). Only time will tell if reliability of the new movement has improved too, to be determined in the future. Wear it i... 

It was unfortunate that I arrived slightly too late!

I blame those airplanes. And the long line at customs. They prevented me from seeing your new piece and being able to chat with you for a little longer.
