A Tale of Two Schumachers (Ti and RG Audemars Piguet Schumachers)
Alright, as per some requests, here are some pics of the two Audemars Piguet Schumachers (titanium and rose gold) side-by-side. I wasn't able to take any in direct sunlight, but will try to do so at a later point today if possible...

And yes, the RG model has the strap on backwards! It was sent to me like that....

I think the Ti looks sportier with the darker dial and the CGs blend in better. But both are . Well done.

I had to take so many pictures and weed through them to get a handful that turned out well enough to post. It is not so hard to take good pics of one watch, but with two it becomes much more difficult to maintain both in the right amount of focus with the iPhone 5!
There were some angles that I had to throw away completely, like the ones of the pushers while the watch was on my wrist. None of them came out right, and I had already taken them off and put them back in the case by the time I realized it... |

Strangely enough, only four or five pictures in the lot show the grey color of the strap correctly. I will have to add pics in the sunlight at some point...

Dammit!! Just badass. The Ti looks better to me but the rose gold has appeal. I can see why you got both.
Thanks a million for posting. |

awesome pics. Too hard to choose between the two so glad you got both.
Really like the way the Ti looks in the pics. Completely changed my opinion of this watch. One of my new favorites. |

I never thought Id spend £50K on a single watch but the more I see of the RG the more I fear for my financial future...

Excellent pics! . Seeing them side by side, I kind of hard to decide which I like better. You should buy the platinium version as well to complete the set.

Super pics, BUT, the AP crown on the Titanium being off centre would drive my OCD nuts!
