Which Audemars Piguet are you wearing today?




Tried this on last night (not mine)
I wanted to like this watch and it totally exceeded my expectations. So light and comfortable. Looks amazing. Yellow is much subtler than website pics

That’s an impressive sword, 350 yrs old. I love historical pieces like that.

Beautiful setup!
The sword is truly a work of art. By virtue of Japanese culture, and also from my interest in the story of Miyamoto Musashi, I can appreciate the complex artistry of samurai sword construction. This is easily evident in the pictures of the hilt you are sharing. Thank you for this nice little off-topic extra post.

I was going to write a screenplay based on him, back in my writing days, working title would have been Katana.

Thank you. I haven’t met many people who know about him - in all fairness, it’s not normally a topic that comes up in discussion!

Great title and subject. Actually, I’m surprised there hasn’t been any modern mainstream movie productions about him…at least none that I know of. I’d imagine a story that culminated in the duel against Kojiro.

My friend got one allocated, so I was able to handle it.
It's an incredible piece. The gradient dial is amazing and ridiculously thin. It weighs nothing. I've handled titanium pieces before, but this one is on another level.
Only 200 pieces, so it's a rare bird.
