I´m glad that there are only 49 more of this terrible piece.
You wanted an honest answer, Roger. |

I actually like it!! Thinking about getting an Orange one myself. If you don't mind me asking how much you paid for it?

Nice. I am thinking of buying too.
Is this only available in Geneva? I will not be in Geneva. Wondering AP will send to other countries boutique for me to collect. If you don't mind, how much is the cost? |

Not bad, Roger. But, will be better with a black strap imo.

I had the exact same thought! The matching lime green strap is overkill on the already sporty/funky dial.

I like it. I wonder why the green one was made boutique exclusive?

Hi Roger,
I do not particularly like the colour but it is a unique piece indeed! |

Roger for someone in your position who has numerous AP, this is a no brainer, if it was your only one, then I would say no. But for a fun watch, why not.

It's a cool piece in the context of your collection (and I seem to remember you wanted the colorful ROOs from back then).
I do think the lime strap is overkill and it would look much better with black rubber.

Thanks chaps. This one is Geneva boutique only 50 pieces. CHF26000 retail price. All versions same price. USD27900 in the US, HKD219,000 in HK. Blue is 400 pieces yellow and orange 375 pieces.
Officially they are all boutique pieces but some will be allocated to select ADs on request I believe. |

Roger, I do like it. It is a great fun watch in a rotation. I also think it would be more 'wearable' if it had a black strap.

Looks good actually for a beach watch.
So the chrono divers ARE limited editions after all? I need to confirm this. |

I would get another watch... Definately not this one, even if they produced 10 only WW.

Not a fan. Then again I don't like any of the bright pieces like volcano etc.

It looks pretty nice, actually.
My worry with this color combo is that there is no way you can go under the radar with it, so it may get a lot of attention. Congrats! Sam |

Not for me. 50 is a great number though if they stick to it.

I like it if you like it! I would not really wear it but there is nothing wrong with it and adding a little color to the collection .I had a green Porsche once that I flipped for a black version....👏👌 years ago (which I traded out) I had an all red ROO 42mm Rhone Fusterie edition...

Certainly not a stealth watch that is for sure! Keep the comments coming guys really interested to see what the overall view is!
