My AP ROC
First post alert! I have been on this forum for several years but never posted anything. Thank you for all the beautiful photos and information.
Intro: I got into watches just a few years ago. From day one I was hooked on AP. My first was an AP SS Diver. Then a few Pams, Hublots, IWC and Rolex. Short story I sold all of them quickly keeping only a few but mostly my APs and the Rolex BLNR. Then I found my Grail.
I want to share with you my absolute grail in my collection. A limited Dubail AP ROC 39mm with a polished platinum bezel. The polished bezel is now back in the new sihh 2017 collection as a 41mm ROC.
This is the limited Dubail edition before the Dubail edition with the red hands and brushed platinum bezel.
The story of the research and purchase of this watch is another long story but I don't want to keep you from the pictures. I normally only share photos of this watch privately but you all appreciate AP like I do
so here you go.
