I have a 15300 Royal Oak (blue dial), which I acquired back in late 2005--as it happens, its one of my all-time favorite watches from any brand. That being said, AP is (and has long been) among the upper-tier houses I revere most! Especially as they are one of the super elite independently owned few that remain to some degree in the hands of of one of the founding families.

A service is on the agenda shortly, but I know that Mary and the staff in Clearwater will do an awesome job.

Thanks for the welcome, Thomas! Don't know if its ok to post a link from another forum (and naturally--if it is--I understand why you must delete it) but here I shared some photos of my Royal Oak, as well as some of my thoughts on why its a special watch to me.

Now we're talking

My avatar has changed in his honour due to this...or perhaps I'm wrong. I didn't zoom in...

It's not me by the way
