Looking for some input on a possible next incoming!
Been lucky enough to acquire this growing collection over the past few years and each piece holds a dear memory and emotional significance in some way.
The next one is likely to be the last for some time (I know you'll say it won't be, but I'll stick to it!) and I'm looking for opinions on which direction to go..

Currently Im between the 15407ST, 15407OR and the 26579C.
Thoughts?

At retail or secondary market? I have to assume secondary as I don’t see an AD giving you an option between those 3 extraordinarily hot models. All of those have massive secondary premiums that have only increased over the past 3 months.

If money isn’t a concern, my choice would be the 26579ce ceramic perpetual all day every day. With the 15407ST a second option. The 15407or isn’t for me, but if you want flash I can see the appeal.

Wow, those are all amazing pieces! What do you currently have in the collection?

kaiserphoenix · 18 November 2020, 02:01 PM

15407ST for me. But Im biased.

Just an observation......if each of your watches has such a deep emotional significance to you why would you want/need to ask a forum of people you don’t know for advice on a new watch?

What the watch signifies is of emotional significance. The milestone or event its related to, not necessarily the case, nuts and bolts..
Will add some pics later today

^^^^^^fair point. I’d go with either the 15407ss or the ceramic perpetual.

CE perpetual hands down one of the most special AP pieces not that the skeleton is less amazing but you are making us choose between the best pieces that AP offers

Are you buying at retail or secondary market? That makes a big difference to make a decision on a cost adjust basis.

Interested to see some pictures of what you currently have first.
