NWA! Just arrived. It was the one watch that really grabbed me when I went to Le Brassus to see the
recent new AP introductions. This is the 200 piece limited edition Royal Oak Ultra Thin Perpetual calendar. It’s made in all titanium so extremely lightweight and oh so very thin. A technological marvel. The dial is a really lovely slate blue that is gradient and the black subdials with white printing really stand out so it’s quite legible. I just opened it and am pretty excited over it. The movement is also very nice to look at. I am still scratching my head as to how they can accomplish this complication in such a thin case. I am told it was the thinnest perpetual calendar on the market until recently surpassed by the Bulgari Octo 
Finissimo. I feel very fortunate to have received this. I am very grateful. Hope you enjoy looking at it. I would really enjoy meeting so many of you in person and yearn for the day I can do so. All the best, Eddy

Congratulations Ed, that’s a beauty!
They make really good holiday souvenirs in Le Brassus!! All the best, Jon
Outstanding new acquisition, Ed, congratulations! Your collection grows ever more impressive!
BTW - your title made me chuckle. I don’t think NWA means what you think it means. You’d need to ice out that bezel and really bring the bling before it gets NWA approval 😀
I thought it meant “New Watch Acquisition.”
I do know the other reference now that you mention it but I did not at all mean that.
I know you didn’t, Ed…
But I was picturing you wearing a big gold chain and a baseball cap spitting some gangsta rap, and that made me smile. I mean, not that you couldn’t pull that off if you wanted to….. 😀
Wait a minute…I thought you were saying to reduce and slow down the collecting 😂
That’s a stunning and superb watch but why am I not surprised you will get it 😊👍🏻💪🏻 Big congratulations 🍾
I'll take that as a compliment from a fellow coolster : )
...I've been trying to convince my buddy to put in for one of these, but so far he's 'only' managed a 15510 which I'll be seeing tomorrow...
The 15510 is a fabulous watch. The proportions
are really excellent. I’m sure he’ll be very happy. Really, all these Royal Oaks are wonderful. To me, anyway. Such an icon and timeless.
Massive congrats! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What a marvel! I wish I never see one in the flesh, or I might be tempted to give my entire collection in trade for it 😅
Amazing. Perfect AP appreciation of you Ed
The complication, the design, the dial,, the detail, the metal, everything is perfect.
Remarkably thin👏🏽
I wonder how you feel about the smooth/flat dial in comparison to the usual RO dial texture? Regardless, this piece is a fan favorite, so congratulations on be allocated one.👌🏽
Great question, Armis. I don’t mind the flat dial
on this at all. It’s the only AP royal oak I have that is flat and not tapisserie. But I think that really a tapisserie dial on this watch would make it look far too busy. Plus the color is amazing.
Agreed. The difference from the others is nice…
and it would be too busy otherwise. Here, the color gradient accounts for a lot! Excellent addition 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The entire watch is 6.2 mm. That compares to the
Royal Oak Jumbo at 8.1 also called an “ultra thin.” The amazing (to me anyway) thing is that it’s almost 2mm thinner yet has a perpetual calendar complication. Wow.
Titanium and very thin is nice . . .
but I still love the feel of our twin white gold Sonatas!!!
Really great
I love the combination of perpetual (typically a dress style complication) and sporty with the RO and Ti construction. Nice addition 👌
Fantastic congratulations - absolute drool....
This is such a masterpiece from many angles - enjoy it's thinness to the fullest Super congratulations and please post more photos and experiences when you get a chance!! Peter
Hi and thank you! I’ll be happy to
post more photos as I begin to live with it. Thanks for your very kind and enthusiastic comments.
Wow that indeed is ultra thin which is a great quality IMO
And thin titanium must make it even more wearable and pleasing on the wrist. I can certainly understand why it got your attention. I would have done the same given the opportunity. Huge congratulations Eddy. It’s super nice.
My dear friend, you are too kind. Thanks
for your very nice congrats. Hope all is good for you!
The Octo is thinner, BUT...
...it can't hold a candle to this beauty. Congratulations!
I’m sure the Octo is also a marvel.
I’ve not seen it but this one is very nice I think. There are so many lovely timepieces out there. Thanks so much.
Such an exceptional watch!
Huge congratulations! This was by far my favorite of the new additions. As beautiful as it is remarkable. Enjoy it in great health.
