Icon7 Incoming Jules Audemars Classic Chrono
I'd been thinking of consolidating the less-worn half of my collection for a while. I had my sights on a Day-Date or a Breguet Marine Big Date for a while...then the Jules Audemars Classic Chrono started catching my eye.

I had a quartz RO for a while, and the AP fit and finish is undeniably smile-inducing. I ultimately decided the Royal Oak route was not for me, but the two-register layout of the Jules Audemars chrono ticked a lot of boxes for me. Thanks to Drster for making it happen.

Thanks a lot guys. I know it doesn't float every AP fan's boat but I've definitely been enjoying it. Here's one more shot, with sunlight coming through a screen:
