I actually never liked or was interested in AP. Then the Nautilus ridiculousness and treatment by a few ADs really tarnished Patek for me and I began to open my aperture and explore AP. After trying on my first Royal Oak... I got “it.” Now here I am with two Royal Oaks, having owned three total at one point, and am looking to acquire my fourth. I will stick with Patek for dress watches and AP for sports watches leaving me with a nice blend of both houses....I won’t hesitate to buy a Nautilus on bracelet if I get a call, but won’t pay over MSRP.
Also, I love how there is near limitless room for upgrading within the Royal Oak line up to an eventual Royal Oak Tourbillon. I was disappointed to learn there is no Nautilus Tourbillon equivalent.
