New Royal Oak range launched…

According to Hodinkee…but not on the AP website??

There are some spectacular references, particularly the Openworked Tourbilon.

Get the cheque books open and the kids sold, this ain’t gonna be a cheap period!

The 37mm changes from 15450 -> 15550 are interesting.

The most welcome change IMO is the thickness goes from 9.8 to 8.9mm.

The 15550ST dial now removes the "automatic" text from above 6 o'clock (analgous to the change between 15400 vs. 15500).

Looks like they tweaked the blue shades as well, offering a light and darker blue.

Light blue shade is absolutely gorgeous, but I must say I'm disappointed they removed the AP logo - I love how the AP logo looks. And as a big fan of the 38mm, they still didn't 'fix' the offcenter date, no flyback, no opencase back, no update to the F. Piguet based 2385!

A lot to take in. 41mm openworked flying tourbillon is incredible (even if one can't actually read the time). Will be interesting to see which TRFer gets their hands on one first. 39mm openworked is nice, but I prefer the 15407.

Smoked dial YG/RG Jumbos are fantastic, maybe the first Jumbo I'll ask for (prepared to be disappointed). No new ceramic (yet), contrary to many rumors/wishes.

Sad that they haven’t launch QP too. Probably in April…
