Black dial Friday …
Thinking about which black dial to wear today for dinner today. 🤔
GP Laureato Onyx dial or AP Royal Oak 15300. Wildcard is the GP 2598 “military dial”.
Leaning toward the “modern” 2-tone GP Onyx dial.
Interesting for me to see the various case sizes here on my 18 cm wrist … Onyx=42 mm, RO=39, 2598=38 mm. Case diameter really means next to nothing … 😅
Anyone, else got a black dial on today … ?
Anyway, wishing everyone a happy weekend ahead.
🤝
PS
The AP is almost 20 years old. And the GP 2598 is 25 years old.

I'm still loving the GP 2598, Marc.
That one is fire! Your 15300 brings back good memories. I miss mine, gone all these years now. Thanks for sharing. M4
❤️ the 2598 as well. Each variant has its own character
The ivory dial has strong vintage vibes while the black dial as strong “military” vibes. I have the blue dial and another black dial which I’ll post again another day. The RO 15300 is ones of the best that AP made IMHO. I’m glad to share this one which ha...
Love the onyx dial!
The 2598 is reminiscent of the Rolex Army from the 40's. A happy weekend to you as well.
Oh yes true. But the 2598 has a better size
for me at 38 mm It reminds some of the Lemania "Majetek" Czech Air Force as well. 🤝
Aww 🥰 thanks but …
The 2598 won the race this evening. But I do agree, the laureato onyx dial was looking good as well. Many thanks. 🤝
A good video to watch on the GP 2598

GP 2598 for me, what a beauty!!!
I tried the onyx GP as well (in gold) but really don’t like the domed sapphire….. Too bad, I really love the overall presence 🔥
