Apologies to AP Thread / RF Members

Gents,

On Wednesday evening I made an inflamatory and disrespectful post - for this I am sorry.

I take full responsibility for the stupid and inflamatory comments which I made. They were off base and in the words of my late Father completely "out of line".

Its not important nor is is necessary for me to provide reasoning behind why I said what I did - simply I was wrong.

Please permit this lapse of judgement as my "mulligan" on the board.

Regards.

Ed

No problem! Takes character to do what you just did.

All the best.

It takes a good sense of humility to admit its own mistakes, you are good in my book.

Let's move on, shall we?

You are un-trolled.

I was also too hard on you.

Wow! You are a class act sir! To admit you were wrong takes a lot of kahunas and that shows your good traits as a person. Although at the end of the day it's only timepieces we discuss here for most of us this hobby is a way of life! Apology accepted and major kudos to you!

Great post. I read your last thread and really thought u were just trolling. I actually just got my first AP today and after many rolex, panerais, omegas, breitlings, tags, IWCs, etc I can honestly say there is no comparison to the quality and attention to detail in comparison to the AP. Add the history on top of that and I don't think there is a sport/luxury watch out there that can compete.

The sad thing is I thought I would be good with this one AP in the collection. Now another AP will be my next purchase.

You probably had one of those days when you posted that thread

It shows great character when one apologizes for offending someone, well done. However, its ok if you aren’t a fan of a brand or a style, nothing wrong with that at all. AP’s aren’t for everyone, I previously owned a Black Themes and I was extremely disappointed with it but I do respect the brand and their heritage……and I will eventually get one that works for me. The 15400 :) could be a possibility one day. Nicely done making amends.
