26240BA Incoming











I’ve had this about 2 weeks now and it is truly stunning. Pictures do not do the yellow gold justice, it is so bright and vibrant. It is not as heavy as I thought it was going to be which is great. You can see the difference in the yellow gold from the John Mayer and a stark contrast between the BA and the OR jumbo. I am over the moon for this one, AP really nailed it!

That is beyond stunning, did not even realize it came in BA form, none the less with that amazing dial.

Beautiful piece and congratulations! How's this compared to the 16202ba which is very similar in dial colour?

what AP has been doing recently with YG (i.e. this, 16202BA, 37mm YG) is nothing short of excellent. i would love to own one.
