Congratulations. Such a killer watch.

How does it feel on the wrist? How is the weight? Too light or just right?

Thank you! Haha indeed lots has to do with building the right relations, but I sincerely enjoy it especially when you have to build them with nice people!

It feels just right on the wrist, compared with my steel QP this one is smoother, more supple, pulls less hair, it is lighter than steel and the weight is super balanced overall very comfortable...but this is only day 2...

Thanks! So far no scratches, they tend to appear after around a week on my steel and PM pieces...Ceramic is scratches resistant so I am a bit less worried and will extensively wear this one...like it should!

A mesmerizing piece you literally cannot take your eyes off, a work of art on your wrist, a perfect balance of elegance and sportiness, simplicity and complexity, it has it all and I am so happy to share this with you, I am not the best photographer but will play around to give you a good feel for it.

I would like to say a massive thank you to the wonderful team at AP HK for taking such good care of me, these people are mega...

2020 was an insane year and I am going out with a bang!

Happy holidays to everyone and all the very best!

This is an absolute stunner.
Though I think the word “simplicity” was used purely for its syllables. There’s nothing “simple” about this watch!
Congrats. It’s stunning.

Thank you very much and I do stand by my initial thoughts.

Simplicity : “the quality or condition of being easy to understand or do.”

It is after all a 3 hands watch, time only, no nonsense, 45 hours power reserve, classic movement, clean classic case design etc...

And yes it is also very complex, innovative hard to master material, openworking by hand, double balance wheel etc...

The duality of this Royal Oak is everywhere, sport/luxury, dressy/casual, classic/modern, simple/complex ;-)
