I think it is a beautiful watch....

Hi,
Well i think that Offshore is an evergreen piece. If i had a chance i would go for it too. Not much changes had been done except since last year they change all its JLC 889 movement to their very in-house cal 3126 (if i am not mistaken). To me , this is one of the best looking and all time favourite piece. 44mm is not a problem if you have a min wrist of 6.5. And i actually love that dial more than today's theme which comes with bigger numerals. 60% off sounds very good if condition is as shown. Cheers.
My very humble 2c.
Regards
Jacky

What is happening with me? Nicolas will be happy to know that I am starting to fall for a ROO. This one is the full Ti version. But I need your analytical critics. If I recall, The ROO has been put on the market around 1993, 15 yrs ago. IMO this current t...
Thomas is THE Expert, but I'd say that the ROO

was released in 1992, or 1993. Hey, I'm not responsible for that sudden love, my friend...LOL I'm more in love with the RO, as I find the ROO a bit too large. Let me elaborate, and this is just my personnal take, nothing more: When GG created the woman an...

personally i dont see the huge attraction others see. firstly the watch has a dial set up to look like it carries a V7750 calibre underneath which means that there are millions of watches out there that look the same, secondly there are far too many 'spor...

Luminova can lose it's "brightness" and ability to hold "charge;" superluminova less so. AP has started shipping, in very limited Offshore models, a new version of the Offshore chronograph movement. This should not be confused with their much rumoured all...
When I said that you are THE expert, Thomas! LOL

Still blushing, my friend? LOL Wow, you really surpsied me about the Luminova that fades with time... I strongly believed that only Tritium faded...Not Luminova... Another Urban Legend that died, tonight..LOL Thanks for the correction, Thomas. Nicolas

My family members thought that I was impulsive when told about my new project. But they supported me and agreed that this timepiece appears to be nice. And, a week ago, when we all went for this special moment and they saw it "live", they suddenly realize...
