Looks great! I think the green strap goes better with the "look" of this watch

[Luv2XcelR8]

Can I call the Geneva boutique and have it shipped to the Vegas AD?

I love this!

You can try but I think they may all be sold already. I went via my local boutique to secure allocation. Good luck!

Well to be honest it is a funky piece to wear at the beach, but IMO only at the beach, I guess it is only a question of taste, I hate green and yellow, don't have anything of these 2 colors, but for the beach why not

[DCgator]

I like it!

[Hamish]

Roger, you crack me up buddy.....I love it if you love it!
That said I still think the blue platinum 44 is king
What happened to the 5370 you were looking at?

[avilhena]

Well, if you have a vast collection, its a reallu nice addition!! I like it

[tinygears]

AP seems to be pushing the envelope of taste in the direction of more skew numbers.

If you've 20 or more watches, and wear this for fun, maybe.

Otherwise, there are too many variants, presuming want want to stick with AP, that will have a life (and value) beyond what appears to have been a parts bin timepiece, made from parts that were produced I the wrong color.

The alternative - I've become to conservative and stodgy.

Please don't shoot the messenger.

Hamish you know me, always looking to be controversial! Re your question, the dealer who had my 5370 was playing hard ball on price so I didn't pull the trigger.

[subbuteo]

I'm really not a fan of the strap, but put it on the standard black diver strap and I'd prefer it overall with the splash of colour. Congrats and enjoy your new addition!

you really must put a shot of watch and tie, LOL

Well Roger does have quite a few pieces and is a serial flipper, even when he has incredible pieces they usually go afger a while, so my guess is that he will keep it for 6 months and occasionally go with it to the beach and then sell it

[Chadridv]

It's ok! I would never spend the money on it though. There are dozens and dozens of watches I'd rather have first.

[HL65]

Why not Roger...A fun change of pace watch in your collection works for me! As an everyday wear to office watch no but that isn't what it is so enjoy my friend!

[HauteHorlogerie]

Congrats my friend. If you like it then enjoy. If you don't after awhile, sell it (maybe take a small bath on it) but move on. It's all about having fun at the end of the day and buying what speaks to you.

[superstarmar]

Roger, Conkers has gone Bonkers!!!!
It's definately a statement watch !!!
Not my taste but congrats !
If you enjoy it that's all that matters ...

[Sky315]

If you like it, that's all that matter.

When you've had many of the regular models and a bunch of novelties, you need something else to give you a buzz. This one is bold and would either be someone who has gone bonkers or someone who is very sure of what they want, having had many pieces in their lifetime. Obviously, Roger is the latter rather than the former... thankfully! Enjoy!

[conkers]

Thanks guys. I find the mainstream pieces increasingly dull so sometimes I allow myself to go off piste. I do trade regularly it must be said but everything I buy I enjoy for however long I own it. Having said that I buy far less off piste brands than I used to. There's only so much resale pain one man can take! ��

[roquecalleja]

Change to black strap and much better

Full set would be pretty cool Roger.
Wasn't that keen on these pieces at first, however I kind of like these funky colours now I have seen more pics of them.
Green strap on green looks good to me👍

[malarky_hk]

Roger jut saw this article and remembered your watch. I love it, btw.

Officially they are all boutique pieces but some will be allocated to select ADs on request I believe.

I can feel that they are all sold out real fast in Hong Kong now.

[theflywrist]

It does look cool, but I would only wear that one to the beach.
It's too funky for my taste in watches for a day to day basis.
