Tomorrows the day.

I used to think that the royal oak style case was a bit old fashioned and not to my liking, then I got a bit older and my taste refined a little (I am only a young 42). Now after a fair bit of deliberation I'm one sleep away from owning a hexagonal timepiece. Can't wait til tomorrow.

Yet another! Well I'm relatively young and personally think these guys at AP have it just right. Don't think I'd label them old fashioned, but that's just me.

Congrats, but do check it is octagonal and not hexagonal. I'd hate to think you get cheated out of a couple of sides....

Well I haven't even had time to remove stickers. Been rushing about. I do love this piece though. I'll post better shots soon.

Cheers

AWWWWW! I LOVE THAT ONE!

Sorry to SCREAM but I'm excited for you. This is THE AP that makes me wonder about abandoning my PP Nautilus as a daily wearer. I am also a member of the AP family (moon phase 36mm Royal Oak).

Just when I think I'm a one-watch guy...
