Interested to know what "a real hit with the ladies" means...

Yeah and he doesn't mean in the DSSD weighty sense.

Thanks for the write up!

A lovely watch and a nice write-up.

Don’t worry about the lack of a Geneva seal - only watches made in the canton of Geneva are eligible. AP is at Le Brassus in the canton of Vaud.

Ah - good to know!

Watcheroo · 8 July 2019, 06:04 AM

Great feedback. The blue three hander is my favorite of the bunch

JCC296 · 8 July 2019, 08:36 AM

Great review, thanks for sharing. Enjoy the new toy!

1William · 8 July 2019, 08:57 PM

Thank you for the review. The watch is not for me and I think in the end, AP will have launched the least appealing line-up of new watches for this century so far. You have quite the collection and as soon as the newness wears off I wonder how it will stack up against some of the heavy hitters you own. But none of that matters, it is how you like the watch. Enjoy.

That watch does nothing for me. It looks very bland imo. The dial, case, bezel, etc are really underwhelming. I still find it hard to believe AP released this line

Yeah, there are plenty of threads for those opinions. But OP’s opinion as an owner holds court in this particular thread.

Given OP’s watch collection, an 8.5 is pretty impressive!

Bearxj86 · 10 July 2019, 04:34 AM

It’s marvelous especially on the grey strap. I cannot get over how comfortable and unique it is. Still not photogenic but it’s jet black in some lights.

This was growing on me but (no offense) it looks terrible in these photos. Especially the one in your box along side your other pieces. I can imagine it looks great in person but hard to get that from these photos.

No offense taken. It’s a horrible watch in pics and I am terrible at taking pics

Bring all your Pateks and watches :)

Fat_ninja · 10 July 2019, 10:26 AM

Trying to debate. If this is better looking or the P-01? Lol

I joke btw. The p-01 is uglier

masterserg · 10 July 2019, 10:47 AM

As I said above, I like the watch and looks good on you.

AshAP · 10 July 2019, 12:28 PM

I’m confident that AP will listen to dial concerns as they do pay attention to what collectors want. The case design is my favourite aspect of the Code line and I think there will be some cool options to come in the future.

Nice Swatch!

But seriously, great collection.
Looking forward to seeing a Code in person.
No ADs in the bay area.

To each his own i guess. Wear in good health!

korneevy · 11 July 2019, 02:07 PM

Great to hear you enjoy it. I find it hard to look at it without laughing out loud thinking of its sticker price vs the looks but who cares, we are have different tastes. Thanks for writing the review!

TheDude · 12 July 2019, 05:46 AM

It occurred to me months ago that AP has quite a history of releasing models that are initially panned that later become runaway hits/classics.

It will be interesting to see how the Code series fares.

I know it’s growing on me...

Thanks for sharing. I am interested with the Tourbillon in white gold. Dial is so beautiful

Cesium137 · 16 July 2019, 01:38 PM

Good write up. The watch isn’t for everyone, but at least they can be found at the AD.

Wrong. They can’t be found at any ADs - this is the boutique only product.
