The TI looks much nicer than RG, no comparison on this one for me, and for all here since the YG got zero likes

Mine on the contrary is always pushing me to buy something, but very soon after I do she wants something and uses my last purchase as an excuse

On a serious note, who could even make such a purchase w/o his opinion on the matter?

the harrods watch issue just arrived today and the gold tourbillion chrono is on the cover (huge 14 inch by 12 inch pic) and it looks really awesome so i change my vote.

That is absolutely not the colour of it in real life unless they have now released a RG version on the quiet.

it says yellow gold, but my photography skills are not the best (its a picture of a picture). in any case, after seeing a very large picture of it, it really does look amazing, but i see your point, it does look more RG in color.

You may be right though Roger as they do say its "exclusive to harrods in the UK" although I have never heard anything about an AP harrods edition. It could also be that it is the regular one and since the UK doesn't have a boutique anyway they are just offering the pieces to Harrods and no other AD's. They do say its available in YG or Ti which is the same as the two you were deciding between and do not mention anything about RG, so I'm confused.

It is quite possible it is the only one going to the UK since this model is extremely limited production I understand.

I like the Ti version better, but I don't think the model is that attractive to start with.

Well the conclusion of my evaluation is now posted. I definitely feel I made the right decision. But now I start to look forward to the next one due early 2018.
