Double incoming in 2021! Over the moon!!!!!
Good day to everyone in whichever part of the world you are!
My journey with AP started many years ago as I fascinated with the reference 14790. As a vintage collector (primarily), I gravitated towards the midsize 14790, and never paid much attention to modern AP. Fast forward to today, I was very graciously welcomed by a wonderful crew at the Boutique, who truly took the time to talk to me, made me feel very welcomed, and did not make me feel like it was a crime to ask to be put on a list for a watch. I was offered very shortly after that visit a 26315ST in grey, and I must confess that I was totally wrong about not paying attention to modern AP all these years. I instantly fell in love with the monocrhome look, the size and the overall aesthetic. Fast forward 10 days, I am put in touch by a very close friend on an AP Skeleton 15305ST that was for sale, which seemed to have a cue of buyers. Because of the nature of my relationship with said friend, I was given the opportunity to have the first right of refusal. I received the watch last night, and was given the luxury to keep it with me before I made up my mind or before I made any payment. I knew almost instantly that I would be buying the watch, but waited till the next morning to see it in daylight before giving any confirmation. There are very few occasions/watches that have given me the kind of emotions I feel currently, and this watch is definitely on the top of that list. I never hunted for this watch, it was never on my radar, but all the stars aligned for me to own it. I feel TRULY fortunate to have people that trust me, and to have a community where I can share my joy in! Pictures of course to follow!! |
