I went through a hublot phase. In my opinion they expanded their collection too quickly.

I think they focused more on quantity than quality. I like how AP slowly makes alterations and changes it's collections. You can see what happens when you do a few things great and don't over supply the market... Look at the demand for Rolexes, look at the demand for the 5711! Too much supply means to much merchandise sitting around. Too much merchandise sitting around sends the message, "No one wants it". And if no one wants it, its not exclusive or special to most people. Moreover, they don't follow suit like AP, Vacheron, Patek and put gold rotors in their models. That tells me that they don't even value their watches enough to invest in gold rotors. Do you see where I'm going here? I woke up one day feeling like I had a fancy g-shock on my wrist. That was end of my fling with Hublot. Honestly, I felt like I bought something valuable when I bought my APs and Rolexes. I feel even more excited about this GP than I did when I got my Rolex GMT 2 in full gold.

I have no clue how AP is to own. The GP Laureato is on my radar for awhile, but in the queu. The AP Royal Oak diver is a nice watch, but as you have bad service experience with AP, i do not want an AP anymore. Also AP is to expensive. Better to stay at Om...

Sarcasm. The reason why i skip chronographs. For timing i use a normal stopwatch. Why i only chose the Royal Oak diver as AP if i want one, only one crown and one helium escape valve. Reason 2, not everybody walks with an AP RO diver on the wrist. Exclusi...
