Platinum offshore 26470PT

Got chance to check out the smokey grey dial beauty last weekend. The first Offshore chrono entirely crafted in platinum. The weight of this beauty really did take me by surprise Produced in a limited edition of 50 pieces worldwide with none of them being numbered. Out of my budget but if I had £115k burning a hole in my pocket

harrods has one for sure. Not sure about selfridges. They can't even sell their last old dial RG 44... so AP probably not taking the same chances with them with the Pt

i was literally there a week ago. I honestly assumed it was the elephant and didn't give it a second look as i had tried that one on many times (like it a lot).

I did try the RG perpetual calendar with the white dial. That was awesome but i prefer the blue dial.

They had the new navy/black 42 as well. First time i had seen that in person.

Well one of our distinguished members has it, Roger aka Conkers, but then again his AP PT collection is just out of this world, but for some unknown reason he let the PT Schumi go, Roger if you are reading, it has to come back, your AP PT collection isn't complete without it...

Great pics... probably best of this watch so far... I will love it more if it is all titanium instead of Pt...

I tried it and REALLY loved it. Honestly, if it was closer to the 85 mark I MAY have sold a few watches to get it because it just has an effortlessly cool vibe to it. But it's a LOT to pay for a metal at that price.

Well you pay the "only" 50 pieces, and the PT, but I agree that the price is nuts

It is a great watch but i agree it is too expensive at full retail. I needed to call in a favour or two to secure a good discount!

At least AP get it in the retail price as opposed to Rolex who under price and send the grey market crazy.
