That's one more for us mere mortals then!

The new openworked tourbillon in 41mm should fit you well. I see Kevin Hart and Jay Z wearing theirs and it looks great on them. What a piece!

Totally agree, that’s an incredible Code reference right there. Any steer on cost? (Asking for a friend )

My SA was not sure but he believed it would be somewhere between 180 and 200k USD.

New AP’S prediction 2022 thread

Watch Alert

Spotted today on a Instagram post of a big collector from Asia. This is interesting as it seems this duo have special dial patterns I’ve never seen before… AND for the first time (I believe) frosted gold ONLY on the octagonal bezel!
What do y’all think? Another new release or a limited Japan one?

Guys that posted this usually post dinner posts and they eat a couple of tourbillons a month ... so they probably don't have a problem to get a custom piece with Patek dial on AP

Nice blue, but not a fan of ceramics.

I guess they said, "people love the blue dials so much, let's make a blue watch!"

Anyone else see anything to confirm the WPS mod’s annoucement of new Sept releases on the US limited editions?

If true, which seems like a reputable source the light blue 41mm looking good!

They might be custom requests but the finishing isn't a custom, one-off order. They're standard on some of the ladies lines, or at least were. It's a beautiful finish in the flesh - one of the best I've seen.

What's the bar for a "custom" order?

Those are stunning!! How come all the cool pieces are nearly always limited to certain markets same as the Bolshoi reference

I must say it's hard to follow these days.
Back in time you would have novelties in Q1 or Q3 at the big tradeshows and that was that.
Now it's coming all year round, sometimes out of nowhere, without even being announced.

Oh yea. Chronopiece. He’s a local collector here in Tokyo who has a ridiculous collection and loves to flaunt it on Insta. I asked my SA at the AP boutique about this and she said that it was probably a custom request from the client to AP. Him and his friends post regularly from restaurants and they literally have suitcases filled with hard to get pieces….. very unusual for someone in Japan to flaunt the way he does…
