Couldn’t decide :). However the AP tends to win due to the wearability

Yep! Their straps and frames are awesome, one of the few quality vendors of tactical gear.

Remaster on an 18k Vintage Patek bracelet. Bracelet lugs are 18mm vs the 20mm on the watch so a bit bothersome. What do you guys think of the look?

Looks sharp to me, but you have to find a 20mm bracelet to make it perfect ! Enjoy !!

Nice Conkers! My dream watch is a white ceramic version of the current 43mm chrono tourbillion.

Thank you.

I suspect you might see the “camo” ceramic chrono they previewed, with or without tourbillon we shall see. Unclear on whether plain white will come.

My wallet would prefer a non-tourbillion 43 in white ceramic with a blue dial and silver indices...but I have my doubts that we are going to see many of what I would call "easy hits."

This ceramic camo is cool for sure. If they did it in a non-tourbillion version....I would have to see in person to see if I could drop the money on it. I am just not sure how it would age 20 or 30 years down the road.

This look is close to perfect. But looks horrendous as is.

Get a jeweller to make 4x beads 1mm wide and with a hole the same diameter as the spring bar ends. It will nicely cover the gap between the lugs.

Thank you. Took a while to track one down - I didn’t get allocation at launch.
