many thanks. I agree yet still very true to the original three pieces made in the 1940s with the exception of the size and the automatic movement [nt]

[Re]Mastered AP Chronograph
I know there is another thread on this watch but I thought I would start a new thread with Live Photo’s from tonight. I got to try it at the AP House here in HK and having admired this particular 1940s reference from the book on complicated watches for a ...
Congratulations! You are very fast. Im glad to hear how much you liked it.
Enjoy your new watch in great health. It is really special indeed.
It looks very convincing with realistic pictures
Well done, this is a creative reference
Your last picture is saying all: a very beautiful watch with substance
I think the solid thickness of this watch makes a manual movement obsolete. My only "complaint" is its price, but that is only my subjective view. Congrats to this very interesting piece that you know how to waer: very cool combination!
Thank you
Yes the price is perhaps a bit steep but I could just about sell my FPJ CB three hander and get this. Everything is relative! One more pic for tonight... ...
Spectacular!
I restrained from using the wording "relative", but you are seeing it the same .
That looks really great 👍
Much better than the official pictures. In fact, very tempting! Huge congratulations and enjoy your weekend!
Thanks for great wrist shots...
For better understanding of fit what is your wrist size?
thanks. About 17.25
I will post a picture of it beside my AP s/s Perpetual for comparison.
Congrats. You must be the first owner of this model.
Two questions/requests? 1. What’s your wrist size? 2. Can you send a photo of the caseback? Enjoy it in good health and, I agree with you that the price is relative: Is a ceramic daytona really worth half this watch? Is a stainless 5711 really worth with ...
i think I may well be. But whether first or the 500 it is just as significant to me!
wrist size is around 17.25. I shall post some better photos next week once I can take with my Leica rather than the iPhone.
I love it!
Beautiful. Unique. Stunning. You won't regret breaking out the wallet on this one. M4
Great pictures...
and what a watch! The dial is absolutely marvelous. I love champagne, both on glasses and dials 🥂.
Interesting point
This piece is obviously a completely new case and is intended to mark the opening of the new museum which, due to the awful situation we are now in with CV19, I suspect may be put back however it is a very special release for AP this year. I hope that the...
Congrats Gus it’s really beautiful and like the guys said
Your pics are much better than the press release pics Enjoy in the best of health
Great pix...much more realistic than the official ones...
My only concern would be the thickness...it seems a tad bit 'top-heavy' if that makes sense. Thanks for the review.
I understand that concern and at around 14mm it is large but somehow I feel it just works.
I can see this as casual more than with a suit but no doubt I shall try with both!
Perhaps a manual-wind version in the future...
...would slim it down to 12mm or so. That would be just about right.
Congrats. I do like this watch (from the pics for now)
I hope to see it in person in the near future
Another side by side photo with my Perpetual calendar.
For give these rather rough photos. I will do another set with a good camera this week coming. ...
This looks much better in your photos!
A welcome shift by AP to a more retro vintage look. Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos! Now I am intrigued! Peter
Congratulations
I love it. I will decide by the end of the weekend if I should pull the plug or not. I would do this in a heartbeat if it was not for current economic issues with the economy...
very nice watch, huge congrats!
i have two issues with it though: why is it s thick? also, legibility seems bad with low contrast of hands/dial.
