A controversial watch from a controversial brand but I love it!




Funny enough,this is one of the most commented and liked watches from my non-watch nerds family and friends.

Best,

A black strap would certainly work.

Personally I do like it on this burgundy strap.

Looks great, Gerard.

The case has been a homerun for me since launch. I said it then and will reiterate my stance that this collection will prove great for the brand. Lots of potential.

Thanks,Michael.

I also feel that the Code will be a future icon for the brand.

A very nice design

I wish the hands were a bit thicker. Otherwise it is a simple and clean design in terms of the case as well as the dial and the applied numerals. I could not understand the reason as to why the model received adverse reactions from AP collectors when it w... 

I like the contrast between the modern case shape and the delicacy of the hands.

It gives character of the watch. Unfortunately many commented about the watch without ever having seen or handled it.

looks amazing

The case and dial need to be seen in person. They are really a great design.

I am less convinced by the hands. Not sure what they need, but the stick hands leave me a bit cold. Lots of potential with this design, and glad you are enjoying yours.

The hands are somewhat unusual but also add to the character of the watch.

Legibility is btw excellent with these hands.

This dial is awesome.

It demands to be looked at with a very close eye

as there’s so much more that’s hidden in the details! As others have said those that are more judgemental would seem to be less likely to have actually handled one.

New code chrono

Beautiful ! Picked up my chrono yesterday from the London AP boutique. Went in for an offshore and left with this I was spellbound by it. They also gave me two extra straps a red canvas summer strap and a black alligator strap. The black works really well...  

Your chrono looks superb.

Congratulations for this stunner!

New chrono

Thanks over the moon with it.

Spellbound is exactly right as that’s what happened to me

 
 By: hub6152 : April 30th, 2021-02:28
when I first tried it on late last year. Ever since then I kept thinking about it and now I just can’t take it off as the love affair is very passionate. Congratulations on being less closed minded.

Thanks

I just don’t understand the hate this watch has received, it’s absolutely beautiful in the flesh and for me puts AP back on the map the with likes of Patek.

A beauty...
