I like some things I see:
1. High quality case construction
2. Straight angle chamfers, which can be only done by hand
3. Clean dial, with interesting glossy pattern
4. Distinctive case design, nobody has a case design like that
What I don't like:
1. Huge AP logo
2. Terrible contrast between AP long word logo and the numbers, the logo is in a serif style which you see in 60s 70s print, the numbers are 80s 90s techno style number.
3. Dial looks plain due to thin hands and large watch, it might be better on the perpetual calendar and chrono but the time only looks plain.
It would have been better if they used the small AP short logo with the sans serif "Audemars Piguet" under which you see on older 5402s A series with the font they chose for the numerals. They could have made them all gold letters too.
Or even a smaller logo, the difference is too glaring and since the case is distinctive enough there isn't a need for such a large audemars piguet word on dial. People will see the watch shape from afar and recognized it as an AP, just like the RO and ROO.
