Looks like the box has been updated ;-) Leave it to AP, no stone ever goes un-turned. What was the question that won you the prize?

Thanks Michael! The quiz was tricky...

 
 By: orangedial : November 13th, 2013-06:36
The most difficult one was: "In which year that AP only produced 2 watches for the entire year?" Oliviero said the answer might not even be available on the internet, hence an answer within +/- 5 years will be considered as correct. And I was lucky! By th... 

The wall clock is great :)

Great Evening

Wayne, that was a great post as you usually do. The evening was great. My daughter and I really enjoyed it. AP put on a great evening dinner and very informative presentation. It is events like that that help one to enjoy and appreciate the brand better. ... 

Jeff, you are absolutely right...

 
 By: orangedial : December 28th, 2013-02:06
AP has done well to promote the brand's technical prowess and taken positive steps to educate its valued customers. It's indeed a great joy to be part of the AP family :)

Great report

Thanks for sharing and pacing the delicious meal for my eyes. My eyes certainly enjoyed each course immensely. And congrats are in order for that momentous wall clock! What was the winning answer to that question?

Thank you Patrick! It was a memorable event...

 
 By: orangedial : December 28th, 2013-02:16
and the wall clock is one of the nicest clocks I've ever owned. The toughest quiz question was: In which year that AP only produced 2 watches? The correct answer is in 1932, when the world was hit by the Great Depression started in late 1929.

The open dialed Minute Repeater and Jumping Hour is pure delight!

Can we have more pictures? Candy for the eyes, but for the ears? How does it sound? Thanks for this interesting report, Orangedial. Best, Nicolas

Candy for the ears too!

It was amazing to hear the sweet ding-dings from that gem :) Unfortunately, those are the best photos I managed to take with my limited camera under the dimmed environment. Thanks for your kind words, Nicolas! Wayne
