Well, you know, the main problem is that this one is not my top priority in my wish list ;-) [nt]

Survivor - Some photos of a controversial timepiece either you love or hate
I have 2 groups of friends, one who swears by its uniqueness and the other despises its existence. With its radical outlook, there's no way to stand neutral about the Survivor. I happen to adore its loud and bold design. It defies rules, breaks design DNA...
Your second to last picture...
... nicely emphasizes the dramatic nature of this beast ;-) Thanks for sharing! Henrik
My first mechanical watch was an orange dial...
And she's still with me after 11 years
I'm the rare bird that's ambivalent about the Survivor, but . . .
. . . I love the crown and crown guards. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that your salmon dial ROC is simply flawless. Superb photography. M4
Too bulky....
a design for my taste but not surprising from AP in my opinion. Thanks for the excellent photos! Cheers, Filip
If I had to take one side
I would buddy up with those who despise it's existence. On a side note... Can you remember the dedicated website AP made for the watch? If nothing else, that may have been innovative for its time.
Understand your sentiment...
No, I'm not aware of any dedicated website for Survivor as it was before I started collecting watches :P
It's a great piece, an icon of boundary breaking by Philippe Vaptzarof
It was a very special period at AP during those days... Thanks for the great pictures and commentary. TM
