Here is my selection for the title of the AP King Of Cool. 


ROO Orchard Road, and its tantalum case and its red 8. 



ROO Juan Pablo Montoya Titanium: 



Jules Audemars Metropolis: 



One of these Star Wheels: 








And last but not least, the Royal Oak PC Skeleton.



I have my favorite, here. 

What about you? 

Best,

Nicolas

Was probably the first reason I jumped into AP two decades ago. Thankful to have the modern version, looking for a perfect vintage one Peter ...

A watch that doesn't get the airtime that it deserves. I was always a huge fan of the Jules Audemars line. The chrono, the Metropolis, amongst others. I love the design of the dial also, very unique numbers that just work beautifully. Thanks for reminding...

If I have to choose from these models, purely on "King of Cool"...

Without hesitation I pick the new Starwheel. Not because I have one, because it is incredibly COOL!! If I had to pick another model at the top of my mind, I will say ceramic double balance. Don't own one, would love to one day! ...  

Starwheel for me!

Love the RO but not so much the ROO due to size. Always found the Jules Audemars line horologically interesting but didn’t like the aesthetics. The Starwheel, including the new Code version is Uber cool and unique IMHO.

The JPM was my FIRST ROO and my entry into the world

Of AP so my vote goes to JPM but for me the real King Of Cool is hands down the RBII No offshore comes close
