So apparently only 5 in each color so 50 in total. Given low production run, hopefully these just stay off IG like some of the other gem set pieces

The sad thing is I get where Patek are going with their releases and they are strategized every step of the way and it makes sense. Sadly, I really can’t see nor understand where AP is going with the last few releases. I hope they will calm down and pull themselves together after this 50th anniversary year ends. This release should’ve been kept off catalog. This really pisses me off lol.

Yes, set of 10. They come all together in a huge trunk (chest). Price CHF 10 mil with 5 mil deposit. 4 sets sold last time i checked (May) and only one of them is a rapper. The other 3 are not famous.

It's like this, but for people with real money. No need to get upset, AP wasn't planning to sell one to you in any case...

macrowatch · 19 October 2022, 05:49 AM

Wait, no one told me I get 3 RO if I complete the moonswatch pokemon game!

Thanks for the info! Curious why they appeared on the AP website now, without much other PR (nothing on the usual watch blogs).

APWhale · 19 October 2022, 06:34 AM

Agree this would have been way cooler had these been out of catalogue such as certain Rolex and even Patek models.

Perhaps because FHB decided to piss off Thierry and steal some thunder? It's as good a reason as any.

20 astonishing models today!

Some of the latest AP releases appeared like that, for example, nobody really spoke about the 15510s, they just appeared on the website and that's it. It's quite weird.

FHB's signature on his emails often reads 'baby sitter' or 'mummy and daddy' (he has a sense of humour) but I do think that this time mummy and daddy have gone out for the day and the baby sitter has let the children play with the crayons. Funny indeed. Those that know me, know that these are right in my wheel house of design skill and palette, lol, and even I find them astonishing.

Cool, spot on! What did your source say about next year? I'm holding off on a 43mm ROO in expectation of great things to come.

It's time to start speculating about Captain America, Spider Man and the Hulk et al again I believe.

If I remember correctly I believe there is also something 'special' coming in 2023 specifically for the ladies. When I heard that I thought it was strange as AP seems to be moving to a gender neutral position and only referencing by size.

Champagnepapi · 19 October 2022, 08:39 PM

I mean why are they making these FIRE limited editions for specific regions and leave them off catalogue?

This is the sauce I want

Thanks! That was actually quite cool. Too bad they didn't show the whole set in it's box/chest - would have loved to see that.

No probs - the video was cool I agree! I have been told by AP London I pretty much have no chance of a Royal Oak with no previous spend history, but like to follow the brand for marketing hints, tips etc as I own a company specialising in luxury goods. Clever/informative video!

Glimpses of the pieces at the end were also interesting, look much better in the video than images.
