Audemars Piguet Offshore Divers Forged Carbon

 
 By: Horology75 : February 21st, 2021-02:20
I had this watch in 2013 and with the fear of fiber and resins falling off like the issue I had with my Grand Prix offshore I sold it . Talk about seller’s remorse! Light , practical and economical were the right words to explain the timepiece . After alm...  

No doubt that she's a beautiful watch and you long for her again.
