The Survivor was so unique and specific to the weapons theme

One things is for sure, AP has a way of picking up on the details and bringing them to the front. Montoya, Barrichello, Grand Prix, Alinghi - these are watches no other brand came up with at the level AP did. While I have no idea how many watches might come from this collaboration, I do expect unique details.

I love comic books and I've loved Marvel movies

I don't know what to think of this collaboration. We all know that Iron man/ Downey Jr seems to be a real watch lover (Urwerk on his wrist), but is AP going to introduce an Iron man dial on its RO,as I've seen somewhere on instagram? I hope it won't happe...
There are a number of ways the collaboration could be branded.

A dial might be the same color as the uniform of the character. Green for the Hulk, red and yellow for Iron Man, red, white and blue for Captain America, etc. A similar approach could be taken with straps. The character could be engraved on the case back....
Excited to see

Like you, Michael, I am not really a Marvel universe guy, but I AM very interested to see what this collaboration will yield. There is so much potential for something special to come out of this partnership. I do not anticipate anything along the lines of...

I am not into this universe, so I cannot tell you whant I am expecting. But in a more general background, I am more focusing on a nice looking watch, with some exciting horological content.

So, if this is linked to Marvel or anything else, good. It is not the link which matters to me, but the watch in itself, per se. Same with the link between cars and watches. Sometimes we had good products, sometimes not, sometimes, ridiculous. Best, my fr...
I agree with your insights.
By: MichaelC : April 9th, 2021-04:58
Depending on the duration of the collaboration, I could see a timepiece released from various AP collections. No reason they all need to be the same.
I for one am excited...

I think there is incredible potential with this particular collaboration - that maintains the audacity, avant garde, and exclusivity of the brand whilst connecting with a passionate fanbase. It's clear Marvel and Disney will continue to invest and maximis...
Appreciate your reply, Peter.

I have posted it countless times, I will never fault a business for doing things to help their business. This collaboration has much potential.

I didn’t really love the idea of the collaboration at first.. but when you think back to the first LE offshores (EOD and T3) they were directly tied to the Terminator movies with Arnold so I don’t really have an issue with it. RM has clearly taken over th...
Nice find..

An interesting read in the public domain. So there seems to be some materials innovation - combining a cellular-like / matrix like skeleton made of some hardened material and filling the rest with some softer and more precious material? Almost like creati...
