I tested the water... And the waters fine...

Been quite a few enablers on this one so thank you Steve, Tom, Chris, Neil, Paul and Ken

You eased me in at the deep end.

And I'm smitten with this Ti & ceramic beauty.



Sorry on pic quality having to use PB as can't get the new system on here to have any of it

Going nowhere my friend, just mesmerised by this beauty!

Just need to order a couple of strap and I'm sorted

Pictures just don't do the fit & finish justice, amazed by the brush lines and depth of the dial

what strap are you putting on it? I really like the grey as its a change of pace for me from the usual black, but am always curious about what else may look good.

Very, very nice! Just tried it on the other day. Real stunner. What straps are you thinking of getting? Horus Straps?

Thank you, I fell for it so if I was going to get an AP I might as well go for the best I could

Black rubber and also considering the GP strap (grey/black not the typical red accent one you see)

I know we spoke via PM about it but didn't realise you had one until I saw it on Insta

Cheeky night shot

That sounds awesome. Does anyone happen to have a picture of one? I love the GP strap, but wouldn't want the red for the Ti.

When I picked up my Chrono from AP London this week they gave a boxed loupe and very nice pen, gratis. Might be worth contacting them to ask? Can't do any harm, as such items won't cost them much and helps build brand loyalty.

I think as and when I get my Ti I wouldn't change the grey strap for anything, it works so well as is.
