Blech.

Let's hope that this is the last of the celebrity LEs. I'm going to give AP a pass here, since I'm assuming that this abortion of a watch was in the works before Francois' mandate to pare down the collection and cut out this sort of nonsense was implemented, but this had better be it.

Regards,
Adam

AP are at the sportier more innovative and risk-taking end of the high luxury HH watch market, while PP are more at the dressy conservative end, they are like Ferrari and Rolls Royce, both serve different markets.

Sports cars such as Lamborghinis and Ferraris have measurable performance merits.

An AP watch with Lebrpn's favorite colors and diamonds have no measurable merit at all other than in being a polarizing watch.

I did not like it when it was announced , but after reading about it and seeing a whole bunch of Pics ( well really just some of the same pics over and over again) it has grown on me. and i think they priced it well ( usually the material combo by such a brand i would think would be more). Has anyone seen what the Rubber Band looks like exactly????? i would love to see a picture of that?? And, has anyone seen the Box that the watch comes in?? if anyone has images of either of these things , if you could post it or message to me that would be awesome!!!! Thanks!!!
