Ditto. Sorry I know it's an AP but it reminds me of a 70's dress watch.

Have you read the article about how the frosted gold is made? It takes so much effort and looks just marvelous for both men and women I think

Looks good, but not for my wrist. A little too "blingy" for my taste in the photos. I'm excited to see one in person and hope to have my mind changed.

I saw it the other day, I think it's a very nice finish indeed. Definitely not something you see everyday.

Just saw this in person. Almost looks pink. Dealer wanted $57K and it was very heavy. I'll pass.

I think it looks stunning, but it takes quite the lady to wear it.

Looks very trendy. In the 70-80s the bevel lines on watches was popular. It reminds me of a fad that will go out in 5 years

Frosted AP is such a cool look. I personally really like it.

I appreciate the manufacture, as with all things AP, but it just doesn't sing me and has an almost "unfinished" look about it IMHO.
