Incoming! ….26240CE
Delighted to share my latest pickup from AP…

I’ve been wanting a ceramic piece for so long now - with this year’s releases came the news of the discontinuation of the 15416CE, c’est la vie!

My lovely and very thoughtful SA immediately sought to get me this and I couldn’t be happier… let the long honeymoon commence

Wow congratulations what a great piece.

May I ask your previous history / current collection with the boutique?

Happy to DM if you don't want to share publicly

Beautiful piece, love the way the black ceramic looks in the sun

Has there been official confirmation the 15416ce is discontinued?

I was told by my boutique manager and it was also mentioned at an event we attended last week. In my experience when talking with my SA about certain models she's told me they've been discontinued even though they appear on the website and not in the legacy section.

Another client I know quite well was pushing for a blue ceramic QP but got told that was discontinued the same time the Travis Scott QP came out. I think it may that there aware production will be so small it's effectively discontinued.

Was it specifically the 15416CE or were all double balance references discontinued?

I was told the ceramic double balance wheels will be relaunched with some minor cosmetic changes...
