THAT is the one to have. AP's best all ceramic model, IMO

 

I'm a big fan of openworking, but you can't argue with the legibility of the solid dial, especially on a PC. Great shot!

Hi All, A fellow member “AP Poisoner” asked me (“AP Poisonee”) to join him at the AP House to view some sought-after pieces.

Once there, he proceeded to poison me with both the black and white ceramic PC pieces. Before we went, he had mentioned the White, and I thought “No way !! Too bright and too feminine !!”. After seeing it in the metal, I felt otherwise. The White is actua...  

True, the white ceramic is more legible.

They are timepieces but reading time might not their main purpose 🤣

Any piece will do

I made my choice when the first model came out in 2017! I agree with all of the observations - what's surprising to me is how light the watch is relative to any steel or titanium models. Also, I've worn it frequently and so far - cross fingers - no chips,...

Was such a great experience, I have never seen that many rare and exclusive pieces in one place. What a treat

Black for me if choosing on AP ceramics

I have seen the white in person and one thing it loses compared to the black is the legibility of the brush strokes. A very key feature of any classic all steel Royal Oak, and the black seems to display it much more like steel. In the end, I personally pr... 

Good point Michael ! The brush strokes are well revealed in the black ceramics c !

The white ceramic was a real pleasant surprise to me in the metal. Thanks for weighing in on steel vs ceramic.

Hi Justin”e”, are your certain that

Special choice

I like the white. I have the same concerns and worries as you. Can i wear a white AP? As a man i must take a black, but i am jealous that ladies have more opportunities by choosing a color and design. Lucky ones. So ending up with something black, i will ... 

Thanks for your comments.

The white ceramic PC is sized mainly for men. So AP feels that male collectors would like this style also.
