The 34 mm size looks great on this wrist.

Can I ask what the wrist size is in these pics?

My wife is going to give me a very odd look when I ask for her wrist size, but I will do and report back.

Edit: Ok, result is in, a little under 6", 5 7/8 or so.

Deal is that the next one is mine. OTOH, the wife has already identified her next goal

Thanks, everyone! Will relay the congrats to the proud owner. I would absolutely steal it, but even with all the extra links back in I couldn’t get it over my hand.

Some were skeptical that the rainbow dial might become old after a while. It’s both more subtle and more interesting than one might think from static pictures (or the odd wrist roll). From some angles / distances one gets a mirror effect reminiscent of the first Bucci collab:


And of course nothing compares to the AP black ceramic bracelet!

Sure, a great piece that will age well... ceramic will always stay untouched, and color pops will guarantee that it will not become a boring black piece someday :)

My black dial RO takes offense to the thruthiness of your statement!

@OP, congrats for the wife! Quite stunning! So in person it looks like the prismatic properties of a silicon wafer where each square reflects the whole rainbow range?

If I had to guess, I would say it actually is silicon, with the tapisserie pattern etched into the surface.
