I recently saw these new chronographs at the AP trunk show in NYC. Stunning watches. I so wish they were manual wind, however.

Love em too
In love with them too, very different to Rolex and far far less seen, in fact I have only seen 3 in the wild here in HKG in last 2 months...........
Here's mine and currently got my eye on the RO 15300 white dial for work (shirt and suit), |

I'm a little concerned about some posts claiming the rubber looses it matt look after time turning into a shiny worn appearance but I have yet to see any clear pictures evidencing such or notice any such change in mine. How's your bezel doing as again many "claim" they are scratch magnets......? |

nothing but praise for the brand, they have some stunning models, quality and craftmanship , looking into adding the ROO safari to the collection, i had to get used to them but they grew on me big time.

Not a fan of the ROOs, i think the sub-dial arrangement isn't that great, the hands are a little slim for it and the bezel looks a bit off, especially from a sideview.
But the Royal Oak Chronograph is the one watch i would love to own, it has the perfect looking dial, the bezel is less pronounced and the watch looks a bit better overall, for me it's the way the ROOs should look, albeit 4mm larger.

The AP is a fine watch. Their Dress watches are top of the range.
