My 3 AP collection - comments?

A bit off the beaten path - what do you guys think?

Superb trio. I personally do not care for the round one, but it does make for a variegated AP collection.

It looks great and similar to mine (Ghost, QP CODE and ROC). My next purchase will be a 15407 or a tappiserie RO - would recommend the same to you to round things out a bit

Bit of a grey / blue theme going on - I dig it! Refreshing to see the arabics on that Royal Oak as well. Which one gets the most wrist time?

Offshore gets the most casual time on weekends and at home. Full ceramic case makes it easy to wear and not worry about scratches.

The Arabic dial RO and Code are worn in a rotation with my other watches mainly to work. I find the Code 11:59 especially under the radar and suitable for almost any occasion.

Came on a blue croc and OP changed it to gray leather. I believe it was a Hodinkee gray leather strap.

Yep it comes on a beautiful double sided blue croc. However since I already have a 5170p and I prefer a casual look I bought a Hodinkee Sedona Calf skin slate grey 22mm -

Really nice and varied collection, and people say all APs are the same, ignorants.

Great set of watches - also a big fan of the Arabic numeral dial

Nice and diverse trio. Not a fan of the casual strap on the code though. Such a dressy case needs a better strap.

I like it. AP has never been a brand I have owned or aspired to own but they are quality watches. In my collecting I always try to have fun with what I own. It looks like you are having fun.

Cool trio.. really like that CG! Been itching for a 44 offshore also but I worry it'll just wear too big and I'll get over it like I did with my Panerai
