Incoming - Code 11:59 Steel and Ceramic Chronograph

Celebrated my birthday earlier this month by welcoming the new steel and ceramic 11:59 chronograph into my collection! I knew as soon as it caught my eye at launch this year that I would be adding this, I just didn't think it would happen so soon. The ceramic middle case and the terrific dial make for a combination that just glistens under light to show the high level of craftsmanship that has gone into this piece of haute horology. AP really has a hit on their hands, and the expansion of this collection bodes well for the future.

Congrats and welcome to the Code family from a fellow bleu nuit chrono owner. I truly believe the steel models with the new stamped guilloché dials were what this line needed to truly shine.

A truly great watch

Please post pics/videos of this on the black strap, I think that's the winner!

Really enjoying the pics and updates in the 11:59! Have mg eye in the blue variation, looking to get to the boutique to try one on.

How is the strap?

These new Code dials look a lot better.
The dial pattern is cool.
And I prefer hour markers instead of numbers.
