It also bothered me - after being asked to place a deposit - to have them offer me a watch someone else had put a deposit on if I came in to purchase then and there.
She was very glib and unapologetic and after that asked if I wanted to try it on one more time. Then she stonewalled me on information about SIHH even though other saleswomen had shown me pictures.
I'm moving away from AP in general and this will hasten the transition. That and the awful resale lately.

That's disappointing to hear buddy. Just a bad apple in the basket. More positive things could not be said about AP boutique Singapore. The boutique staff here have been very helpful and polite regarding all my issues with my watch (bear in mind it wasn't purchased from them; I got it from an AD).
I'm still being treated as if I had purchased my watch from them, even offered champagne on my visits. Utmost kudos to the staff here in Singapore.
My only bad experience with AP service was an old lady down at the AP Service Centre, who couldn't be more rude the very first time I brought my F serial 42mm Offshore, with her remarking that it was a very old watch and telling me it might even be fake! And boy did she look very reluctant to even take it in as I requested an authentication and servicing. I guess there's always bound to be a few bad ones here and there. Don't give up on the brand.
