New Camo releases

What you guys think of the new blue and khaki green AP camo releases? I received two calls from AP boutiques on green ceramic bezel and cream dial
Camo. Looks like new camo pieces are more desirable.

I think the blue camo will look fantastic on a white rubber strap. They are also limited edition which makes it a bit more exclusive.

I like the new green camo much more than the version with the cream dial. I think it looks good.

...but among the new release, this one is my favourite

I went for this one so my opinion might be biased.

I personally think green dial is far better than cream one. The cream one due to same color inner bezel also looks a little more bigger. The bezel on green face is black making it wear a tad smaller.

Of the two I prefer the blue, but then I do like blue. I like green but don't favour the 'dirty' shade of green that AP used. That said, unless its part of a decent rotation I'd be worried the blue may be a bit bright for everyday use.

Wow looks great! After buying 26405CE earlier this year hard to justify another 44mm but this green is perfect:)

I like all three a LOT.
The brown is amazing in the flesh, with the option strap I bet it's stunning.
The blue is really loud, great for super casual days.
I haven't seen the green in the flesh, but the pics look great.
All three in rotation would be incredible.

I wish they would camo the divers like they did on these chronos. Maybe they will in couple years. The 42s fit me so much better or else I'd get one of these new offerings.

Definitely not for everyday! But I see the blue being my sole weekend watch for the next while

Old camo + old list price

Gen speaking very hard to walk in and get one of the news ones from “display”

Saw the same one at the Vegas AD this past weekend. What was weird is that the SA pulled up Chrono24 and was showing me list prices for the older Camo, basically encouraging me to buy it to flip it. I knew that if it had any value in it, this guy would have found a way to do that already!

I’m not a fan of the 2018 tan dial version, but I think the 2019 blue (obviously), green and RG all look fantastic

Just in case anyone wanted to have a closer look at green.

Current state of mind is that this camo has grown so bad on me that I’m actually preferring it over my 15400.

Love the blue. I know there’s a pic somewhere of Damian Lewis wearing one on Billions. Saw this too from HBO’s Ballers 🔥
