Incoming, my first AP.

I am in NYC for the night and finally caved to watch I've been daydreaming about since summer.

I just bought a AP ROO Navy. Unfortunately it is being shipped so I cant take more pics, but I snapped one in the store. The next two days will be a long wait.

Gorgeous. Thanks for sharing. Congrats!

Quick question, any issues with fitment under a shirt cuff? Looks like no problem.

Great pick up my friend, shouldn't be a problem for most shirt cuff, unless you wear a tight cuff.

Thanks everyone! The watch is a little large under that specific cuff, but I don't foresee it being a problem with others. Regardless, I think this is more of a tshirt and flip flops watch. The strap is a blue horn back croc.
