15550 ST - Doubts

So looks like the first AP is coming! I took the plunge and seeing the prices going down + AD has not been able to source one for the past year and a half, took the plunge. And I am waiting to finalize the deal with the grey dealer.

All looks good so far, I only have a couple questions I hope you can answer.

- Watch is from mid 2023, and comes with no booklets, only the guarantee card, is that standard now? At least a nice brochure from AP would be nice, but I guess "environmentalism"

- 8 removable links (Making the bracelet 20 links including the fixed ones) - Want to make sure all is included with the watch hahah

Already guarantee extended to 5 years and AP Coverage registered, so should be all good. Just wanted to clarify those points! Looking forward to joining the AP family ;)

Are you sure it isn’t a 15510 from 2023? Maybe AP still had a few 15500s

AP stopped giving the booklets in 2023. All manuals are on the website, if need be.

Thanks for the clarification! I bet old manuals will now increase in price

I just bought a 15550 today, 2022 50th anniversary grey dial, its my first AP and it is just fantastic..you can't go wrong..it certainly wears bigger than its size, the 37 is similar to my 39-40 Rolex's ...

No, I did see the one at Nashville watch though online, but ended up finding one locally off moda that was bought from a well-known dealer in May, the owner barely wore it a few times, so it’s pretty much brand new.

You are good. They only come with the cards and the link count is correct. Congrats!
