Nwa - 26420ce!

Sharing with y’all my latest acquisition from the fantastic team at AP House NY! Just arrived today, was very pleasantly surprised to get the call last week!

The 43mm Offshores really wear well, and the way that AP does black ceramic is just.. next level.. and it works so well with the gold accents.

Thank you! And yes agree completely, the black and gold reminds me of the Lamborghini logo as well.. I have been distracted all day

Thanks! Indeed it does.. it’s more comfortable than I expected, even without the deployant clasp.

Congrats! Too big for your wrist though, perhaps because the shot is too close to your arm?

Thanks - perhaps the angle / perspective, but I also personally prefer my watches to wear larger, especially one with such a bold design.

Thanks!! Love the pair of Offshores - between those two, you’ve got most occasions covered! Love the light and dark contrast too on those two. I’m going to be rocking this a lot for sure!

Congrats, wear it in great health ...

Last pic you sent is one of the best I saw... this watch is very very hard to capture, if you catch the ceramic right the gold accents usually doesn't look good...

The stitched croc is too much for me, I prefer it on black rubber like the one Steele posted.

Thank you!! Appreciate the kind words on the picture as well, it really is hard to capture both the black and the gold. Lighting worked out well this morning!

I’ll likely be going back and forth between both straps.. the rubber is a cleaner look, while the leather with contrast stitching is interesting in its own way. Good to have options!

Great pictures you took. Thanks!

I got the offer for this watch on the Lunar (Chinese) New Year. I am picking it up this week. NYC AP Boutique. hopefully I can pick it up tomorrow but we are currently snowed in. When I saw the picture it reminded me of Asia. I had to have it. (I came to USA in 1976 from Asia with my mother and siblings).
