The AP equivalent to the 16710?

And by that I mean the perfect "tool" watch from AP - if you could even call an AP a tool watch.

Similar to the Jumbo in size but with a seconds hand, I think it's the perfect AP to own - much like the 16710 being the perfect Rolex. Of course, I am biased on both accounts...

I’d say your spot on, 15300 is one my favorites. Simple, three handed, and the perfect 39mm size!

I remember having one on my wrist years ago and they were asking just £8K for one, but I said no, I'm not paying that for the white dial, how time flies!

Love the 16710, still hunting for a good birth year one. Been looking for years.

For AP, I don’t think there is an equivalent. ROC have historically been unpopular, and dual time had a relatively short run. And obviously the time/date variants don’t have complications
