Incoming - First AP - 15510st!!!!

Got the email on Thursday and picked it up on Saturday. Felt surreal when I received the email (was on a work video call...)

Thank you to the London AP House team (and my SSA!!!!) and to everyone on the forum for providing helpful advice.

15510st in black was my first choice for the 15510st line so am really happy with this. (Also got a free coffee table book and a travel box - need to get a cap / umbrella next time haha).

Started my journey with AP House back in Q2-21. I was brand new to the watch world and hence asked for a Jumbo (as I thought a 39mm would fit best). I then got an appointment sometime in Q3-21 and have been visiting approx. once a quarter. My original SA left in the middle of 22 but luckily, I was paired with my current SSA who (I think and hope ***fingers crossed***) gets along with my girlfriend and myself.

Thank you again to the London AP House team and to the forum!

Also thank you to the Harrods team, HK AP House teams (both) and the IFC boutique for being so friendly and welcoming!

Major congrats OP. Looks stunning!

I’m hoping that perhaps this year I get the call for my first AP from AP House London too. I’ve visited twice in the past year and am after a white dial 15510ST.

Enjoy and wear in the best of health

Congratulations

Getting a new 15510st as your first new AP means you’re doing exceptionally well….

Glad to hear the exceptional team at AP House looked after you well. Need to get back in there soon myself for a proper catch up.

For black 15510, love the contrast between galvanic text on the black dial

Agreed, looks best on The black dial.

Does anyone know when the new boxes were introduced? I think it was sometime around 2022 or 2023

Awesome thank you. So I’d guess the last set of pre-50th pieces delivered in 2022 got these as well…

I can only say for sure that the box changed sometime between sept 2021 and July 2022 based on personal allocations
