AP Holiday Swag

[Reign]

Everyone knows the half the fun in owning APs is the swag that comes along with it.

Curious what folks are being sent in different regions this year for the holiday season?

Mine is on the way, I’ll post pics when I actually get it.

[raclaims]

So far...nothing lol!

[Mbbgysam]

I got a pretty cool box of AP-branded Ester & Erik candles and candle holders last week. I'm sure this was the much cheaper option compared to what raclaims is likely to get haha

[SMD]

got the candles. Honestly, holiday gifts from AP last few years have been pretty weak. Don't buy for the swag, but just noticeable.

Candles here as well.

My wife liked them at least.

My AP gift is them still willing to talk to me :) The year I’ve had with them I’m surprised that there hasn’t been a global mandate from HQ to put me on mute.

I have added to my collection of ‘tribbles’ though:


There a three more of these little guys knocking around, two at the bank and one in my golf bag. You can never have too much protection…

Is there a secret to getting this swag? I have multiple AP's, 10 Rolex's, and a few other Swiss brands, all but 1 bought from an AD or Boutique and the only piece of swag I've got was one Rolex credit card holder.

I've been very fortunate to get some incredible allocations from AP and Rolex and I don't expect any swag but I can't help but to wonder how everyone else seems to always get things like this.

It's all down to your AP House/Boutique/AD and their discretion and to a degree your latest interactions with them, i.e. how fresh you are in their mind.

My 'tribbles' are really golf focused items and readily given as gifts by AP at their golf events. Equally though they are truly functional for every day travel protection and every AP House will have them, so don't be afraid to ask.

[what are these? watches holders? or golf stuff?

They are protective watch cases. I find that they work very well will Offshores due to the rubber strap but they’re not great for Royal Oaks.

Honestly it’s pretty random, no idea what the criteria is, my spending is all over the place depending on year

Fair point. The first time I got a holiday gift, it was the Offshore desk clock. Last year it was a holiday snack basket and candles this year. I think APAC crushes it on swag from what I can tell

[chiscott_29]

I got an AP golf umbrella last week from my AD. But it truly was pouring outside so I don’t know if it was a gift, or he felt sorry for me. Regardless, I thought it was really nice!

I got the same last week. Thought it was a very nice gesture.

[kimwizzzuuu]

I believe all regions got candles this around. Mainland China received a bigger box with a Christmas door wreath.

[TunaTuna]

I got the pen, watch case and ornament two years ago after a 15500st purchase, this year I bought the OR on a strap and received nada.

It's fine, I never really expected anything anyways

[mykii]

Got an envelope with a "thank you" card.

[Jsol]

We got this bouquet a few months back. They smell amazing. Somehow this company treats the roses so that they last a year. Bionic.

I "know" (through a good friend) the guy and his wife who started/owns this company. HUGE watch fanatic with ridiculous AP's and PP's... I was shown pics of some of his collection a couple months ago. Just wild.
