I didn't know that there was a limited edition in the limited edition. I just discovered that a few " JPM ", 20, according to Antiquorum, had the JPM signature on their case back. Each time I see one, I regret having let mine go. What a cool Royal Oak! Be...  

JPM is truly special!

One of the few that I noticed even back then - I have to say the strap was what piqued my interest back in the day. Years and years before PuristSPro, of course

Quite enjoyed JPM as a driver, too :)

They are mostly a bit more anodyne these days, with the possible exception of Kimi

The JPM elicited very strong reaction when it was released

Hi, Nico, The JPM was (one of) the first piece from the Phillip Vaptzerof era, a true high point of audacity and design in the Royal Oak and Offshore timeline. AP frequently did a sub-series "Friends and Family" within a larger limited edition. Ironically...

I saw the 48mm rose gold Arnold All Stars version with "To our Governator" on the back. That was quite the special piece. However, the JPM ain't too shabby either

I share the same liking for JPM LE...

particularly the Ti model which is light and very comfortable on the wrist. To me, JPM had set a new design milestone for the ROO line when it was introduced in the 90s, with many strong design elements still influencing the line. The "Friends and Family"...
