Granddaddy of them all

I have shared in recent posts how I frustrated I have been with AP and their lack of interest in taking care of their loyal customers. So everytime I wore my AP recently, it reminded me of how I no longer want to support the brand until they can get back to taking care of their clients.

So off we go with another trade and here comes the iconic DD in YG and champagne dial that I always admired but wasn’t sure I could pull of. Well, still not sure I can pull it off but will give it a try!

Interestingly, after owning so many brands, I am back to owning everything by the crown, at least for now! Cheers!

I'm going to add, you pull it off quite nicely. Classic and quite elegant.

Looks amazing - I have to think an all gold watch, gold dial, goes with anything just like black. Congrats!

I too was ghosted by AP. I'm also a recent owner of a Daydate 36. Even in the smaller size these watches have great weight and presence. Congratulations
