OMG
Hysterical.
How many people would travel half way across the world
to pay over MSRP on a watch (its limited and an AP I understand
why and that it's worth it.)
BUT the best part of all.
A man after my own heart.
Conducting a deal in a store where everyone is in a suit
spending more than many make in a year on a watch
and doing it in comfort in jeans and a TShirt....

LOVE IT!
HK you got style!

I must say when I was first getting serious about educating myself in watches, I came across promo photos of this model, and I just thought it was goofy. but now...several months later, I look at those photos and I'm speechless

bravo sir! can we get caseback pics?

It might be an AP, but it is an ugly one.

i think it is time for james bond to move up to AP -

that thing looks like a movie prop that can shoot a laser to fry people, and a string that will shoot onto a roof and pull you up!


I just passed on a watch a couple months ago because I didn't want to drive to chicago.

Well done

The survivor did not grab my attention at first as I thought there were far nicer looking models in the AP ROO line-up but its really grown on me recently to being my new No.1 dream, grail whatever watch...

Simply awesome and very stealthy
