[HK Islandboy]

[Chadridv]

Just beautiful

[antbkny]

Great looking watch

[1William]

Very nice.

[mjclark32]

Nice!

[benlee]

Very nice, but too bad one has to pay thru the nose for it, either via grey at significant premium over MSRP or throw loads of money at boutique in order to be "qualified" to get one.

[Rachdanon]

Stunning , almost other-worldly, alien.

[watchucallit]

Thanks all. I was fortunate to get in line at a Boutique right after it was released. Had to wait 3 or 4 months..

This is hands down my favorite AP.

You're a lucky man to own this beautiful piece!

Hopefully, they'll make a more affordable version of this sometime in the future.

Lovely piece OP and still my current grail...

[KBM]

That's a piece of art that tells time.

Definitely a grail watch for me among APs.... but unfortunately, I couldn't find myself pending 70k+? for this piece now.

Such a work of art!

[nnicot]

Gorgeous watch and beautiful photo! Interesting thing about this watch is that I've had people tell me that it looks like it weighs a ton. On the contrary it's deceptively light, probably the lightest all-SS watch I own, in fact.

[elcompa]

Fasbulous. I can see why you stare at it.... Time and money well spent!

[wach16]

Unreal shot!

[GB-man]

Love it!

[incontrol]

Beautiful! One of AP’s best.

I'd never get anything done if that was on my wrist.

That is the 41mm version (15407st)

This is my favourite but that’s because the 41mm suits me better, but either way you can’t go wrong with an AP openworked.

Waiting to see the new 37mm version as a possible purchase for Mrs SC11

[jed11]

I mean...how could you not. Just an amazing watch.

[Helmi]

Wow it is fabulous....deeply in love

Sometimes it’s better not to look at all, was happy with my 5 watches, but after coming back to TRF, I am obsessed with getting a RM. It’s like ex smokers or ex alcoholics/junkies, if you try even once you are dead, my last incoming was exactly 6 months ago, the KV. Well at least it will be some time before I can get it, it’s not the most expensive RM, but depending on the one I choose, I like 4, it will be between 117-185k USD, it should take 1,5-2 years, except if I go nuts and sell real estate or my watches.
So guys we have to face the unpleasant truth, we are watch junkies, don’t go to watch shops, forget TRF and listen to your wife

I've known guys that are previously watch junkies but completely kicks off this expensive habit of watch collecting. Most of them found another equally or more fulfilling hobby or a higher calling in life. Especially nowadays with watch brands playing mind games with consumers on their hard to get pieces making it necessary to navigate an obstacle course just to give them our money, the stress and frustration may soon outweigh the joy of collection. So that's entirely possible. Don't give up hope.

Thank you my friend
Really I was perfectly happy with my 5, but after seeing the RM thread I started doing research on the 055´s and 035´s, which are my favorite ones in the very expensive but not crazy expensive from RM, and spend at least 2 hours a day on it.
Funny thing is for a long time I had been very calm about watches, like Michael Corleone says in Godfather 3 « when I thought I was out, they pull me back in »

I had kicked the habit for a good 3 years back in 2013-2016. Was much more focused on other passions. Had the one AP Jarno Trulli, and had no desire to look at watches or buy another one. I wore an Apple Watch for probably 2/3rds of the time. Apparently I missed the golden age of buying. Saw 5711s in the window of an HK AD and had zero thought about picking up either.

In 2017 the watch addiction for me came back with a vengeance. Some days, all this talk about games, crazy grey prices and having to beg ADs to sell me a 40K SS watch has me on the fence about giving it all up again, but it keeps sucking me back in. I'm in too deep.
