Pulled the trigger

Well, after much debate and going back and forth , i finally pulled the trigger on an AP. I worked with Chris over at EJC and he really took care of me. Glad I can now call myself an Audemars owner

Congrats got my first AP two weeks ago. Im in love. My favorite watch and i think i got the Ap bug.

Welcome to the family.

I noticed on the back of your hand theres a cut. Is that from your watch crowns? I have a permeant blemish on the back of my hand on my watch side from all my watches crowns smacking into it.

Congrats on a great watch! Try the grey rubber diver strap and tang buckle for a nice change up.

I have a callus there as well. Guess its the mark of the WIS.

Congrats! Grey is my favourite 42mm ROO.

If I were to choose again between the grey, black, Safari and Navy. I would still go for grey!

I really love this piece, congrats.

That being said, I have never had a 42mm ROO on my wrist. Would love to try one.

Been wearing my RG44 this week/weekend!

Are you selling the watch already? Happens to us all sooner or later.

Maybe try a ceramic 42mm--I've found the ceramic is much more comfortable than SS models for some?

Will the AD work with you on another AP that might fit better?

Doesn't the AD you purchased it from have a return policy? Only been like four days...surely they could work something out with you.
