Whilst doing my all-too-frequent browse of the AP website and I noticed the absence of the magnificent 26480.

With a bit more poking around, I found it sitting proudly on the legacy-collection page.

Is this a sign that the 43mm is where the action is from now on?

Didn’t this reference only get launched in 2019?

That would be a relatively short run for a model no?

I guess that was inevitable. For me, the main difference to the rest of the ROO line-up is not the diameter (i think the 43mm is very wearable for many), but the thickness. The 12.8mm really put the 26480 in a unique place , halfway between the typical ROO (14.xmm) and the ROC. Would be nice if AP could fill that space with a new model.

Yes and yes. It’s he only 42mm Offshore with the 43mm pusher design so I’m a big fan.
