What's the reality for a new customer for AP?
Hi,
Do anyone have experience with AP AD? I’m looking for AP code 11.59 chronograph. Do any of you know what will be real waiting time for chronograph for customer with or without spending history? Do I really can get one at retail? By the way what’s the msrp because I can’t find it? How much premium is on those watches at grey market? I just would like to know before I make my decision because my nearest AP AD is 2 hours drive. I know that this is not most popular model in AP range so maybe I have a chance. Just asking for experience? |

I was offered a 3 Code chronos of different configurations in a span of 6 months before I settled on my preference (blue, WG). This was my first AP. Just depends on the configuration you're looking for. On the grey market you can occasionally find them for a discount, but many buyers at retail have bought them to start relationships with the brand and probably are not immediately selling as to not compromise that status.
Since it is a $50K+ acquisition, I would skip the secondary market, you should use this as a starting point with establishing a relationship with AP. The wait isn't that long. |

Most existing customers can't even get a watch these days, but for a code, you have a chance. That window is, and maybe already has, closed. Nonetheless, it's worth trying.

Depends on the color tbh - the ceramic ones are nearly impossible, blue is tough and the others are a bit easier. Best to express interest and they’ll call back in no time. The environment is rapidly changing so AP will know best what’s doable and by when Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Only the 11.59 available at the AP ADs and they are waiting for customers who like to get one :)
