Audemars Piguet

I find it really well done and would like to discover it on my wrist before giving my feelings ;-) ...

I like the dial depth and the numerals, indexes. The panther is not for me.

And unfortunately I feel the Panther ruins it. Everyone to their own of course.

I could watch them all day 👍

Do you know this one? ...  

on the subject and am in something resembling shock, no awe. Cheers Marc

42mm concept with a flying Tourbillon and ceramic bezel makes the watch extremely wearable on a day to day basis. The box itself is pretty exciting too. Pricing as I understand is relatively reasonable. Of course, the biggest question for aficionados will... 

Often, a novelty is growing on mind with time ;-)

Pretty incredible craftsmanship, finishing, details, etc. Sizing is perfect at 42mm and the Tourbillon cage is incredible. And a really cool box (it actually lights up)! Again, not for everybody. I also think there could have been equally successful if th... 

...of serious collectors and comic con fans who don't give any heed to normal or traditional watches. You are correct- This will be lapped up by geeks and celebs who don't give 2 hoots about 15202 or 5711 or AHCI snobs. This def has a place in a collectio... 

Laser engrave a 44 Magnum or a 1911 on the dial and I am all in. But here, even though comic characters do nothing for me, the brand has created an exceptional timepiece.

Let's take for instance a skull - which is so popular these days. I think there is great potential with the lineup - it's also an excuse to "test the market" a little bit with some audacious designs. I get a feeling there will probably still be 250 happy ... 

A gun for me, a car for you, other things for other folks. I never knock other peoples interests. I think it is incredible how much money was raised around today's event, what a positive story in a world of mostly doom and gloom. Bravo, AP. This brand is ... 

both. Cheers Marc

If this continues, it will put off many serious collectors. Just silly.

then Wonder Woman for M/F equity ;-)

Rap stars a decade ago and athletes carefully chosen such as Serena Williams and boxer Anthony Joshua. Now this. All to renew and continue building AP's efforts to grow a new and younger market for mechanical watches.

I love how with the figurine and the central wheel are positioned ; Black Panther seems to be coming at you « balls out » 🤣

I believe it would have been better if the dial had stuck with color palette-driven themes and saved the explicit "Panther" branding for the caseback. Best, Tim

Actually, after think about this further - could this be seen as AP's move to the RM segment? There are many of these rather special collaborations with RM leading to some pretty incredible valuations - but I imagine would not be ideal for most of us in t... 

...  

RM was beginning to look downright respectable and sophisticated now in view of Leather Coat Man's Marvelization of that venerable brand AP is and used to present itself as. Cheers Marc

So, they are interconnected.

I don't like it, it's just a toy to praise a comic hero. Something you might expect to find on a fake watch stand The auction result...well, we all know how they work.

The video of the making of the panther is impressive. This isn't your father's cloisonné enamel lol. The coherence and execution are beyond reproach. Of course, like with all art it won't resonate with everyone, nor was it intended to. As FHB questioned D... 

A lot of watch brands talk about being audacious, but few are. AP talks the talk and walks the walk. M4

...although I am most probably not the target audience. Nevertheless I want to give credit to Mr. Bennahmias who certainly knows how to create headlines for the brand: a real marketing genius! This year's novelties have all been strong with me having the ... 

Let’s be a gentleman / gentlewoman and just say - pass...

But especially at 6:30 H.

Fitting super cheesy toy characters in mega dollar watches is an art, AP did not master the rules before breaking it here... The main problem is not the how the watch looks but its target audience... I wish FHB would keep some funding to increase his QC s...  

...disguised as the French version of Morpheus 🤣🤣 He should change careers and consider acting 🎭

an not the Brand. They come, they go. Rolex is doing better-the brand is the star. I am really shocked...what a tastelessness. Hublot ok, that is their style from the beginning and that works for them. But Audemars Piguet? 🤦🏻‍♂️ Without the evergreen Roya... 

on their homepage a few minutes ago. What an unbearable marketing trash... Undeserving for this great brand. Just my 2 cents. Best Tempus

I never would have thought that a member of the so called trinity would make a comic book watch that if I saw in Walmart toy section I wouldn’t pay more than $10 for as a gift for my son. They should be embarrassed imho. But that is just my opinion.

Watch the videos on their website then tell me again about 10$ Walmart.

.... brand and just kitchen sinked his emotions. We all expect something more towards our liking.

...asking to have the hands set to 6:30🤣

...putting out some real (gud n bad) content. it is sure bet as far as ROI is concerned. But this moves impact on Brand equity remains to be seen.

Whoever buys this must be mentally challenged. This is a real joke. I’ve lost a ton of respect for AP. This is also the reason why I’ve gone on to collect independents.

I do apologize. I just cannot agree with the watch. Enough said.

Placing a comic book action figure on the dial was the least appealing of options IMO. I suspected it would have dial colours paired with characters' costumes and perhaps a character engraved on a solid case back. While I'm not an AP aficionado, as a casu... 

...when they fail, they tarnish the product. There are a few dubious celebrities in the promotion of this piece already. I'll never understand why watch companies use fictional characters and why the WIS community attach comic book nicknames. I always cha... 

I’m trying to look back in history and see if pop culture reference on a watch ever made it big. Best I can think of is mickey mouse on a timex / genta and Snoopy on the Omega. Hard to pass judgement. 50 years on this earth made me realize that on every o...
