New blue Royal Oak dual time?
I've just noticed the attached new dual time on the AP website
https://www.audemarspiguet.com/en/wa...T.OO.D018CR.01 I have tried googling it for more information and haven't had any luck. I just wondered if anyone knew any more about it. It seems to be one of the few 39mm Royal Oak's currently available and I rather like the look of it. |

It looks amazing ! Same here, never seen it before. Spoke to local AD and it wasn't even there in their system and then they said its only in the 'catalogue' and will be out next year but not sure.

WHAT!? Is this the same movement as before or is it a new in-house one? Looks great nevertheless.

Seems to be the old caliber but I love that blue strap.

Wonder the price. I wouldn't consider an old dual time but this one for the right price would be a great piece.

My AD enquired with AP today and was told £15500 but with all the brexit issues who knows what it will be when the watch is actually issued

That's an interesting redesign! Like the strap.

Intersting, certainly an improvement over the previous model. Perhaps for the right price.

That font doesn't quite work for me.

Very cool, I like it, although I really liked the older version as well. Would prefer it on a bracelet though. Nice to see they still kept it at 39mm

I don't like the "UP/DN" text (totally unnecessary) and the extra bold day/night indicator makes the dial more unbalanced.

Quite positive comments on this watch here. Interestingly on a UK based forum it's almost uniformly very negative which surprises me. I like it - I think it's got a bit of a ROO look but with a smaller/thinner case.

Meh, I think they can do better. I love dual time watches, and would love one from AP, but this one just does not do it for me.

From the pictures I lean more towards the older model.

I like it. Proven JlC caliber, reasonable 39x10 mm case, strap instead bracelet, updated dial design. There is also a version of this model with white dial but I don't see it on the AP website.

I found out about this watch in April at the AP NYC boutique, they said that the white dial dual time was a SIHH release geared specifically towards women, but it was universally panned and didn't do well so they did a redesign in blue with a release date around December, but I am hearing first quarter 2017. Price I was quoted was $20700.00USD

Lovely, but still preferred the classier and more harmonious dial of the first generation 39mm with the bracelet on though.

Bold changes, looks to have amped up visibility.

Looks like they shortened the indices. And that font is quite bold. Lost the touch of red too.

Like the old dial better.
This looks sporty but on croc? |

Agree looks bold. If I had to choose between this or the 26120, I think I'd go with the older model.

Prefer the old dial, but I can see it growing on me.
