Per Patrick’s request, a comparison of the A🦅’s . . .

 

First and foremost, I had to visit the local coffee shop earlier today:


In a previous thread, I had posted a comparison shot comparing the side profiles of the standard A🦅 vs the A🦅 XPS:


Well, I had the opportunity to visit the boutique yesterday during my visit to NYC and decided to try to take some additional shots:


You can definitely appreciate the slimmer profile of the A🦅 XPS. The standard A🦅 comes in at 9.7mm vs 8.2mm for the A🦅 XPS:


Of course, we also have a significant difference in the movements if we look at their engine rooms:


Now I was planning on mentioning the safety pushers on the A🦅 XPS bracelet was a feature lacking on the standard A🦅:


However, look at this wonderful surprise from yesterday’s visit: the standard A🦅’s bracelet now features safety pushers:


Even the sales associate seemed surprised. Chopard must have quietly upgraded the bracelets on the standard A🦅!👌

Another differentiating factor is the bezel. The bezel is slightly thinner on the A🦅 XPS:


Another thing that I caught in this follow photo of the standard A🦅, the bezel can appear as if it’s being pinched at certain angles from the 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock positions:


Speaking of comparisons, here’s one with the Girard Perregaux Laureato with the copper dial:


Finally, I understand that Patrick really like the Luis Vuitton Tambour!😂🤣😂


Hopefully, you find this helpful!🤞 Thanks for looking!🥂
