Plat/Ti 26331IP ROC

A new acquisition yesterday. My first AP on bracelet. Its a lovely piece and the dial, in particular, is amazing. Its also surprisingly comfortable to wear. I think I'm lucky in that with three links removed its a good fit when cool, so hopefully on hot days will still be ok - tight, but not too tight.

A scarce piece, and I think I'm lucky to have it. Seemingly the second in the UK, and very much recommended.

Sorry about the massive pics!

I’m definitely not the biggest fan of the new chrono, but that looks SLICK my friend. That entire piece exudes luxury. Congrats.


*I’m really liking these AP grey dials as of late.

Looks fantastic. This is imo the best looking novelty of 2017. Although you have to be extra careful with the bezel. Big Congrats!

Yes, the bezel is a worry. Indeed on the way back from picking it up yesterday on the tube I knocked it on some glass, but no damage as far as I can see. I'm hoping that as its quite thin in comparison to the 44s I'm more used to, it will be less prone to smacking into things!

I know some don't like the smaller subdial at 6, but I really do. I also have an RG one too, so am used to it, but as a design I prefer it to the three dials all the same size.

Many congrats, AP are really nailing these ROC dial combos!

Is there a Cape Cod or similar that works on little plat marks?
