New additions on AP.com

There are 2 new full diamond set Offshores, 1 in 44 case size & 1 in 42. Does this new model indicate that there’s now a metal bracelet for the 44mm Offshore?.

I dont think so. They’ve released this piece in the past so i dont think it’ll indicate a steel bracelet for the 44 mm offshore

I do not believe that the 42mm piece is new, but the 44mm is. Excellent question Ash.

It isn't often that I'll ever make such a comment about an AP and equally I don't mean to offend anyone that buys one, but FFS I've never seen anything so repulsive!

You need to start hitting the gym hard else you are going to literally be a one sided knuckle dragger with a PT ROO with a PT bracelet.

This!

Although if I remember correctly the buckle is like $7k so I can only imagine what the bracelet would cost.

My full platinum 42 weighs 430g so a 44 equivalent will be well over half a kilo! Awesome!

Perfect for someone of your towering height and proportions, not so much for us relative homunculi.

What a beast it will be. Bring it on.

A full pt44 would move things on from the brick to a breeze-block

What a watch that would be.

Whilst I'd prefer a bracelet to rubber strap, the weight would make it impractical, unless AP put in some sort of micro adjustment.

I hate loose watches that move and slip down the wrist to dangle on the hand like a woman's bracelet, and with AP there is no micro adjustment, so if you are lucky enough to start with the watch snug when you're cool, when hot and the wrist swells its very uncomfortable, if not unwearable. I can just get away with it on my 26331IP and 15500ST, as they are both relatively light, but a heavy steel or gold 44 with bracelet would, for me anyway, be totally impractical in use.

I'd love me a gold bracelet on my 44! Sadly .. it'd probably cost more than the watch :)

Are they aiming to break some guinness record for number of diamonds in a single watch?

Very nice. Seems like they are slowly introducing new models for 2020.
