Audemars Piguet

Not much happening here, some work, house chores, and maybe watching some football with friends.  My favorite time of year.

Hoping on having a great weekend..  Going to a friends wedding so it pretty much looks good!

Michael, I just read your post about strap changing your roo. I bought one of the latest editions, red stopwatch hands, black dial, black alligator strap with r d stitching. last winter. Having a proper man sized wrist, I quickly realised I needed a larger strap which I bought for an exorbitant price from my local AP boutique. They kindly fitted it free, while I watched. You will be pleased to know you did it the correct way! My other reason for writing is that I live in the South of France - ie. Hot. I have quite a number of watches in my collection, but inevitably I like to wear each new addition on an almost daily basis for a while. The problem is that perspiration and leather don't really work, and I could see my beautiful strap becoming ruined. AP suggested a light dressing of olive oil to the inside which certainly preserves the leather, but over time it soakes through to the red stitching, turning it a dull off-red! Again I sought advice from my friendly AP boutique, and I bought an indelible red ink. pen, which seems to do the trick. Do you have any better ideas ? Thanks Tony

I am working on some recommendations for the posting issue. Good to see you here, I'll send any info I turn up.

Have a good weekend too

Cheers
Robin

BTW, "not much happening" could be a good thing sometimes.

I embrace "not much happening", because usually it is just the opposite for me.
Thanks Luis.

Still, my favourite ROO of all 

And I cannot argue with you ;-)

Thanks again for another beautiful photo... keep them coming!

But for an every day limited Offshore, titanium RB2 is the best.

I can afford a slip in productivity.  That tends to be a significant problem when I wear this one

I treat my RB2 for special occasions, do you wear yours all the time?

Despite the high value of the RB2, it is a very wearable watch IMO. The ceramic bezel makes it impervious to scratches. I have never dropped a watch so I don't really worry about cracking. I guess you could scratch the titanium; I have learned over the years to wear my watches and not worry about the marks they gain on the wrist.
For me I go through phases. I do not own many watches, but I love every one, so it is just a matter of finding time for each. The only one I can say I think twice before wearing is the pink gold Openworks, to business meetings and such.
But yes, your RB2 should be on the wrist for you to enjoy as much as possible
