Thanks, I love the wheel guns as well have plenty of those. The all blue with Ivory is a Nighthawk custom VIP 45 ACP. Has jeweled magazines, impressive government size.

And yes Michael that is blasphemy to own only one 1911. It's that good that he has won two world wars. Difficult to improve on perfection.


Best,
Jorge

Can’t lie I’m a gun nut. I have a lot of custom 1911s so this watch spoke to me. Was worried about the size but it surprisingly wears well. Thanks Respo for an easy transaction. ...  

AP tough

Looks great on your wrist!

And thank you!!! I hope you enjoy it for years to come. It is one fo the great AP designs, IMHO. All the best my friend, respo

Thanks Robert good chatting with you!

Thanks again for the watch.

I have been asked before, "if you can only keep your guns or watches, which would it be?"

 
 By: MichaelC : August 5th, 2021-14:37
My answer is always the same, and will never change: "Pick a watch and I'll give you a price". Enjoy your new Survivor! I know it was extremely well loved by its previous owner.

I like that!

 
 By: jp884 : August 5th, 2021-14:54
Yes I would agree as well. Robert and I share horological friends so it was an easy transaction. I knew what I was getting prior to ever receiving the watch. But this will compliment my gun collection just a few teaser shots of some of my 1911s ...  

I don't want to derail the Survivor thread...

But that is awesome!! I love the EBs. I almost bought a Signature edition myself. Is the all-blued w/ Ivory grips also a Brown? I own only (1) 1911 (blasphemy, right!!). Ed Brown Commander with some minor custom touches. I shoot it well. I went to my rang...

An AP I’ve always admired.

Congrats. Looks perfectly good on your wrist.

Thanks I have always admired it as well for said reasons.

 
 By: jp884 : August 5th, 2021-23:16
But never pulled the trigger (no pun intended) because of the size. When I knew it was coming from Robert I said what the heck and I'm glad I did. It wear surprisingly well.

It’s one of those Offshores which mark an era for me.

The End of Days is the other one for me. I say this not as an AP guy, more of a general observer. But yours and the End of Days are the two I’d like to own. Enjoy it.

I whole heartedly agree with you.

 
 By: jp884 : August 6th, 2021-03:54
And share the very same sentiment. I’m not really a ROO kind of guy but I will be adding a EOD to the collection as well. Because of the same reason you stated it is an era watch. And these two exemplify that era the best IMO. Now that I know the watch is... 

Thanks Champ!
