An AP hour or so....
of up-close and personal browsing today.... The ROOs were all great, but I have to say, the Millenary is awesome on the wrist, and my favorite of this bunch. Enjoy!

Great PICs, looks like you had fun, thanks for sharing.
What made the Millenary so special to you? I have yet to see this one in person.

Very nice pics. I had a Millenary for all of 24 hrs and returned it. For ME, the shape of the case caused it to dig into the back of my hand unless I really cinched it down. It wasn't very comfortable.

All very nice AP's.
ROO's are looking sharp as always... What did you go home with? |

First, the finish work and visibility of movement is, up close, just amazing. I had not seen one in person before today, and even the best pics just do not do it justice. Second, for me at least, it was a great fit.. Just "disappeared" -in a good way- onto my wrist. Perhaps it is the unusual oval shape and well-balanced width/height ratio. It was hard to give it back! Was offered a decent price, but I really wasn't ready to buy - would like some more wrist time and a bit more thought. Going to try to stop for another look again while I'm in town this week on business - no AP dealers anywhere near my home.
