Congrats, and thanks for sharing these very interesting observations. The color of the dial with the gold case is a very cool combination. As for the date, I have to agree. A real pain.
Following other members lately...
Today, I was thrilled at the opportunity to purchase a 15202OR at a boutique today - and it was truly another special experience with AP. I imagine that in the last year of production that it was truly a special and lucky opportunity that I could not pass...
Me too!
And strangely there is a natural attraction to this shade of RG... Cheers, Peter
Thanks for the feedback...
There is a nice combo between rose gold and blue dials - and AP and Patek have definitely found ways to maximize them. I am wondering if Rolex will too? The lack of quick date makes this much more painful to set than a perpetual calendar. Looks like this ...
Congratulations you are among the lucky but deserving few.
Such a beautiful and elegant watch. Enjoy
That is a kind comment!
I’m sure there are many other passionate collectors who are more deserving than me. Sometimes luck and a little pressure on the AD makes some difference - but now the hunt is for the next piece! Cheers Peter
Wonderful, congratulations!

For sure, if I ever get there, it would be a Royal Oak bracelet.
Much less flashy than most others.
Agree...I think the cuff links were a total impulse buy...
I’m not a person who wears a lot of formal dress shirts with cuff links. And given today’s environment with simplified Zoom friendly clothing being the norm, I probably will need to find the right venue to go for this combination. Oh well, there are more ...
Wow! Wow! 🤩
Congratulations on a great addition and the cufflinks do the justice . You’ll love it and after a while the colour becomes reddish and patina develops on the metal making it less shiny ; which you’ll love . Ideal to wear with jeans and formals ...watch fo...
Thanks!!!
Totally appreciate the words...and the inspiration and motivation! I'm thoroughly enjoying the collecting journey with you and many members of this forum! Looking forward to your next purchase Cheers Peter
The first time getting matching jewelry...
I once made fun of my wife about how if she buys one ring, then likely I will see the matching bracelet, the matching earrings, and then finally the matching necklace in a short period. I've seen few jewellers do a great job with all (and mix with proper ...
