Audemars Piguet Team Alinghi watch

any thoughts of the new AP Team Alinghi watch?

forged carbon is used for the bezel and casing.

As much as I like AP, and LOVE Alinghi for kicking a** in the last America's Cup, that watch looks bloody awful.

A tank has better aesthetics!!

The only AP I really like is the TT Royal Oak with the "beaded" dial and the solid TT bracelet.

It's not bad.
Although, a little cheap looking for AP.

Never been a fan of any of the AP RO always thought them to be quite a ugly chronograph.But that one above IMO is quite hideous,great movement shame about the face.

I've heard that before, but not about a watch

I do agree though, that is one hideous watch. Nothing really appeals to me, and makes me want to pay the $$$ that I'm sure that thing costs.
