Vintage AP Pictures

Hi,

The Asian restaurant I frequent has a bartender who is a fellow watch nut. We've gotten to know each other quite well. He has a vintage 1956-1958 AP. He brought it in to share with me and I figured I would share with you. I don't know much about it. So if anyone knows any info feel free to chime in. Also feel free to post your vintage AP pictures.
