WHY? I visited the AP museum in
Le Brassus recently. It’s a tribute to fine watchmaking and all of AP history. I cannot imagine seeing this watch displayed in that museum. It just doesn’t fit. To me it’s not their DNA, they are swimming outside their lane and it cheapens the brand. Just my $0.02
So not my thing...
I find AP a little irresponsible to make something like this. Then again, who knows... If people like it, then all the more power to them!
Yes!
The Black Panther one was so successful, they're going to retry the formula until they see demand wane.
We live in a society today where money and tastes are not aligned.
Then again, someone may accuse me of having "stoic tastes." Perhaps they're not wrong, but I'd like to remind them I definitely go out of the box too.
Bold...
Incredible craftsmanship again...and did you see the Dubai "unique piece" in WG? Insane... Anyway, prefer the split second but this one is truly special. Maybe next year they will make a Year of the Dragon version? Cheers Peter
I wonder about the craftsmanship
From what I read on Hodinkee it seems to be a mostly industrial process. The figure is CNC machined and then laser etched. At that point it is finished and painted by hand, but I can't help but compare it to (admittedly plastic) miniature models and the d...
OK
Just like their Black Panther watch don't look at time when it's 12:00 and 6:30 and with this watch 8:45 as well. AP's body placement with these watches suck.
I think AP missed a trick
I wish they had sculpted Spider-Man to be coming "through" the movement and interacting with the bridges rather than just sitting on top of the dial. For example, have his right arm go behind the mainspring bridge and appear to be holding on to it. I had ...
I like it a lot 🕷️!
Truly captivating 💜, but perhaps a touch too luxurious for my budget. It might also be a challenge to acquire. Its fresh, trendy design sets it apart; it certainly isn't your grandfather's timepiece, unlike many models from Patek, Journe, Vacheron, or the...
ah! I think I understand the issue 😅
I like the🕷️but, frankly, is a bit too rich for my blood. I also tend to avoid AP as I know is very hard to get anything.
it’s campy, but very much in line
with the long history of Mickey Mouse watches… the AP is just a mickey mouse watch if you can appreciate the distinction
I guess... There's something more classic about Mickey.
Spiderman movie was just so... When I saw the movie, I was just laughing the whole time. It was definitely... how do I put it nicely... made for kids. I was at a friend's home and he thought it was a good movie to show the distinction in his audio system ...
are you interested? :D like new conditions
I also made a detailed video and more photos !
I'm tempted, but I'm also trying to resist! RESIST! RESIST!
Detailed video? More photos? Oh my! I have three unused Octo Finissimos, mainly because I only use the first one I bought.
ahh three unused!
I have a total of two and would like to let the Revolution go. WIlling to make an irresistable deal for forum moderators and members 😅 you would love it !
Ahh, which one is the other one?
I take it your Revolution model is probably very seldomly worn. It's so well done too! I can't imagine what you have as your second one. You've probably mentioned before, but I probably just can't recall with certainty.
the other is the Bulgari Phillips LE 50
which I got this year. Frankly, I didn't wear either watch except for some photos for my blog..so whomever gets the Revolution would be getting a great deal !😄
And we thought the Rexhep Rexhepi CC buyer was crazy….
…looking at this he/she got a bargain ! 😂
Imagine this design but watchmakers instead of superheroes!
Rexhep or François-Paul crawling through a dial!

I'm going to snap my fingers...
... With my Citizen Spidey Eco Drive I can simply snap my fingers and AP's Marvel collaboration will cease to exist. I call that, mercy. Then I finally rest, and watch the sunrise on a grateful WIS community.
It's a no from me...
...not that I would be able to afford it hahaha Why AP? Why?!?!?
Ouch it looks like the next watch they will make will be with hot wheels
AP is supposed to be a prestigious watch company but the way they are going I’m starting to get nauseous
