New AP - RO Ceramic Perpetual Openworked

Any idea on pricing (feels like ~$125k just based on other stuff)? Availability in 2020; no idea on production numbers but probably less than 100 if I had to guess.

For sure. I bet Roger can get one. Also 125k sounds low to me.

They did a great job with the rose gold to increase legibility on a skeletonized face.

The detail on the stars and moon is second to none

Word on the street is limited to 50 pieces. So basically unless you already knew about this one from a private tour of Le Brassus forgeddaboutit.

But didn't I read that it's not limited, just simply limited by production? (Which is no different from most RM's, most Pateks, most Rolex steel sport watches anyway.)

CORRECTED: I see you updated above, as well. Ignore this post. :)

Yeah that's what HODINKEE is reporting. I may have been mislead. Just what I had heard. AP seems to always veil production plans.

Indeed.

Quite honestly, AP has been one of the more annoying brands for me. Second to RM.

I love 'em both. But not as "simple" to collect as Rolex or Patek.

(Note: Simplicity has nothing to do with how quick the pieces hit my collection... just how many hoops to jump through, how much disinformation, etc.)

Know what you mean but funny to read as 90% of this forum is beatching about hard to get PP and Rolex.

Oh wow.... mic drop.

This is where AP beats Patek...in use of "exotic" materials and skeletonization.

Well they said what initial run of 2000 1159s. One has been sold to you so that leaves 1999 left. Divide that by 50 of these and it appears 39.98 codes to get an allocation.
