What's your take on the 2003 LE AP T3?

Dear folks,

I need your enlightenment here. A close friend of mine agreed to sell his AP T3 aka Terminator after bugging him for some time. This particular AP model appealed to me because IMO it's very unique. Can you give some feedbacks/ comments?
Also would like to know if it still has the JLC movement? Would it be a good keeper?

Greetings from the Philippines,
SP

As the biggest AP fan all I can say is that it is the only AP I dislike and would never get. But as long as you like it who cares what I have to say. If your wrists are big enough go for it.

It fits my 7 inch wrist no problem. And I find the asking price of around USD 15,500 quite acceptable too. Thanks for your opinion and infos folks.

Hope to hear some more from you guys.

My apologies for asking but would it be this one? If so I have to say it isn't my favorite model (I'm not a fan of its right side and the pushers/everything-around-them. As well, if it's as big as Thomas said I'm afraid I would personally find it too big for me). Of course, if you like it I'd say go for it as it does look unique indeed!

EDIT: Okay, I think I've been hard on it, the dial does look nice!

Ok for the time but superseded by more interesting recent models.

That watch is too big for a 7 in wrist....

I have smaller wrists myself, more people need to accept
that a huge watch does not compliment a smaller wrist.
