Audemars Piguet

She was running fast, so I sent it to the folks at AP Clearwater and it came back 3 weeks later, spick and span. It was serviced under warranty, and came back with a leather travel case (which is very appreciated). I paid for their laser welding refinishi...  

Enjoy !

So let’s see what those Floridians have done

Was 14 seconds actually noticeable?

Even the kudoke 2 (which doesn’t have a seconds hand) To me, 14 seconds a day comes up to ~7 minutes a month. I find that unacceptable, but realize that it’s a matter of opinion

I was just wondering how people notice it. I assumed you switched around a lot between your watches so when it was really needed you would have them serviced.

Unfortunately, I’m obsessed with accuracy, so I set my watch to an atomic clock the night before I know that I’m gonna wear it, and clock it at the end of the next day (when I put it back in the watchbox). That’s probably a very unhealthy way to enjoy one... 

Looks great!

Form should follow function

It looks brand new again. What is laser refinishing?

Thanks man

Amazing level of refinishing they offer. I must send my piece for this refinishing one day.

As a follow up question/clarification, if the polishing portion of the process is with the intent of smoothing/removing excess material used as a filler, then it would seem like the loss of metal is nil, no? I’m assuming they are precision-polishing the f... 

It negates the loss of material issue that is associated with regular polishing. A Lange & Sohne is supposedly the other brand that does this. I know of an independent watch repair shop who does this for all brands, including Rolex

It’s hard to come up with a negative comment😆🤣😂 Enjoy…looks great on you!

They do exceptional work.

I hope that they dedicated the same attention to regulating it, as they did to refinishing it

It better! It’s a tough competition nowadays, with double-certified chronometers in the collection 🤣🤣🤣

I plan to put it to some good wrist-wearing use

re-discover pieces in our collection. If she keeps good time, she’ll stay

Enjoy in the best of health! What size is that one?

It was the only regular production RO when I was in the market, back in 2018. They now have them in 34, 37 (along with the 41) I believe

But I love the shine of the guilloché (tapisserie) and bracelet. The current 15500 is even thicker than this 15400, and looks more on the sporty side of sports luxury, if you know what I mean

Looking to add one soon in my collection. Happy for you. Enjoy your cool watch. 😊 Cheers. 🥃💨 Geross.

I look forward to your ‘incoming’ post. Have a good weekend
