I'd rock the black one, but agree I don't think it would have staying power just fun for a bit

I mean, I wear reflective Casios, neon Freestyle Sharks... I love having the $50k+ version of my $90 Casio!

It's a Casio, designed to look like an AP... it's an AP designed to look like Casio's version of an AP... I love it.

I tried it, I liked it, I decided I didn't like it $40k-much. But not sure why I would be disappointed about AP making a watch that some like and some are not interested in? It is made quite beautifully.

Because they keep coming out with these strange offerings. I have become less and less interested in AP over the past 3-5 years. I still have my 15300 blue and 15706. I have not seen one reference as of late which would make me even think about adding to that, and at one point I owned 4 offshores. I think their first big miss was moving the RO to 41mm and think their newest update to it, while helped with the longer markers, it still looks like a dinner plate.

Just my .02 and if you are not disappointed in their offerings, that's fine of course.
