First Incoming
I’ve loved watches since I was young - I remember feeling like a boss in elementary school when my sister bought me an $80 Nautica. I was gifted a couple modest watches in the years since, and have been looking at AP for probably the last 8 years. I honestly think I first heard about AP in a rap song. I tried the 44mm carbon fiber offshore in 2015 while on my honeymoon in Bangkok and have been fixated since, though I thought it was too big for me. After a lot of deliberation and justification, I finally pulled the trigger, and I don’t have any regrets. Thanks to all of you for providing me with some inspiration.

Thanks! The photos you shared of yours helped me know I was choosing the right one. I think I will get the blue strap for when summer rolls around, I think the gray is a good wintry look! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
