Pull pull pull

Just curious how was pricing? Wondering if these are sticking close to msrp or not.

Pull the the trigger...

Great piece -

Any thoughts - how was it on the wrist? How crazy was the pricing?

I'm not crazy about most APs but that one is a real beauty. I would do it.

Damn I thought as much. I may be inclined to wait then. Only because my personal disposable doesn't warrant it. If yours does, that's a killer watch!

No discount hurts...I would still consider because it looks stunning!

Start the incoming thread!

Absolutely stunning watch, but as others have said, I would personally hold off a bit until you can get some sort of discount.

One of my favourite Ap's. Work them for a discount. They can't have buyers lining up for a pricey piece like that. Or call around to other Ad's. That would be a great piece to start an AD relationship with! Good luck, I wish I could afford it!

If you were to buy it would it be an everyday watch? How often would you wear it?

I was wondering why there was not any thread on this. Perhaps, it is a new piece, glad to see finally one.
Yes, no discount no go. How much is the asking price if I may ask?

Stunning, absolutely stunning.

I would urge caution on servicing costs though and the length of time it may be away.

I tried it on 3 weeks ago and was blown away! There was only a small discount offered and at 57k and I thought it was a little high.


To me this is by far the most interesting AP perpetual to date. Simply perfect with the weeks included.

I would like to see the prices relax a bit but I may be dreaming.

Agree 100%. I want this to be my next AP but will wait til the end of 2016 to see if discounts get greater.

Only thing jumping in front of this on the want list is a Ti/ceramic diver.

Beautiful. If funds are not an issue I would pull the trigger and enjoy. If I hit the powerball I will be buying one!

Strangely I prefer RO's and PP Nautilus models not too complicated, ok I love the PP 5712 but it has PR and moon phase, sure it looks great but to be honest between this and a Jumbo I take the Jumbo and even better for me a PP 5711...

No discount = No purchase

You should be able to get discount in coming months if not sooner.

Wish they had included a seconds hand. It would have been perfect.

With a 20% discount it becomes a compelling value at ~45k imho.

For resale piece, what will be a decent discount for a month old watch?

At my local boutique, there is no discount.
