Ap ro 50

Went to the boutique at MBS today and saw some of the new collection. They are really fantastic. The green dial is special. Really like the new black dial. Here are some pics.Name:  20220212_143006.jpg

I think the green dial looks great with the gold. For the steel version, I’m not sure it’s as good of a match

I was just there on Thurs and they said they didn’t have any of the new pieces to show. So it’s either these pieces landed in the past 2 days or they lied to me.

Either way, glad to see that you managed to view them. Were there other pieces available that you didn’t photograph? Curious about the jumbos and the new openworked jumbo.

Are these 15550s available for purchase for a first timer? Did they say how long it would take to get allocated for you? Btw I went down to MBS and left my contact with them 2 days ago but did not receive a call yet for the appointment. Anyone knows how long does it take to get the call if you’re a first timer?

They had the 16202 Jumbo, it's one of my photos. None of the openwork.

They had on display the WG Diver and RG 43mm ROO. Also the new 42mm ROO baby blue and RO frosted chrono.

Agree, green + RG is out of this world, for steel it may only be #3 for me after blue and black.

Nothing yet. Told them what I want.

Asked for SS chrono green dial. Already have 26331ST blue, 15500ST blue and 26239OR blue. I am blued out. Love the green.

Also, there are more releases coming.

15500 being discontinued, explains the crazy price acceleration

They lied to me in the past. Similar deal - someone posted the new releases they’d been shown the same day I was there. Hate these games

Very nice. The blue dial with gold looks amazing. Hope to see them in the flesh. Unfortunately my SA at MBS left. Emailed them on late Jan for appointment but no reply yet.

Odd, I tried the new pieces at MBS boutique on 29th Jan. I was there again yesterday and the couple on the table next to me was trying the new pieces. A week ago, I heard that Liat did not have them yet, not sure if it’s still the same.

It’s unfortunate as I was wearing an AP QP and I was hoping to be treated a little better. Oh well, life happens.

Thank you, yes. I saw the 16502st in your photos. Was hoping to see the plat green or gold jumbos. I’ll get the proper treatment in a USA boutique eventually but was hoping for a preview while on vacation.

I tried on the frosted chrono and I LOVED IT. Great heft and not as blingy as I thought it would be.

The green SS chrono is a fantastic choice.

Don’t worry, there are collectors much worse off than you. I had the same experience, but without the QP! (And can’t get one). Lol.
