Icon17 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo "Extra Thin"
I picked up this Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo "Extra Thin" in yellow gold with fumé petite tapisserie dial from the AP boutique a few days ago.

Holy mackerel! That is sharp. Too much gold for me, but I can admire it.

Thanks all :)

It wears extremely well on the wrist.

I'm more used to the slightly larger and thicker 15500 etc, so this feels more delicate. Due to this it does not feel so heavy, despite being gold.

That’s good to hear. I’ve never owned a Royal Oak but I’ve heard varying opinions on how it wears especially for a precious metal one.

But damn is that one fine watch. Definitely one other best Royal Oaks out there. Congrats again!

Amazing pick up, congrats!

Do you mind sharing what sort of pieces you picked up along the way to get the watch? What’s the allocation process/criteria like!

I weighed it today, as as expected it's fairly light. Lighter than my gold Offshore on rubber strap. It is 19.1g, with 1 link removed for sizing.

Yes, I tried on 5 of them during two visits, including this one 2 years ago.

This was my second one from the boutique. First was a green 15510ST about 2-3 months ago. But I have other APs previously.

I do think it will, as it's pretty special. It's instantly my second favourite watch.
