curious to see to see what complications are available upon official reveal on thurs. a chrono has my interest the most.

what are your thoughts?
I prefer code case design from this pic, seems more refined and less bloated. However, things could change after seeing multiple angles.

I hate to say it, but that particular AP looks better than this Patek.

I never imagined to say that but AP Code 11.59 is more interesting and better designed than Patek Decubitus if this leak really shows the new line.

AP released something that was actually new (eg case and crystal design). Patek just took inspiration from their Alibaba copycats. Really lazy and uninspired new line.

patek definitely took the safer route, squared off the case used same dial design and called it a day. we will have to see more angles on release day but does the new shape mean a new caliber was designed for this line?

as for the 11.59, you can't deny it looks like a michael kors watch when looking at it from the top. the sapphire is unique, but its only from the side angles where you really see the unique case design, flying lugs and octagonal mid case.

This looks f***ing terrible. Maybe I should tell you how I really feel. Looks like someone with no skills played around in photoshop with a Nautilus, got distracted, and this is what was left on the screen when they walked away.
