15202 yellow gold ... wowza

Wow —

On a trip to Paris this week, I was shopping around for one of the following — ALS 1815 Up/Down, Breguet 7787, or a Patek 7234...

And along the way I made the mistake of stopping by the AP boutique.

I was arrested by the 15202 in yellow gold, yellow petit tapisserie dial. This YG watch in my opinion looks terrible in photos and in person — well — I voted with my wallet. You’ve heard of a watch “singing?” It happens folks. Rarely, but you’ll know it when it does.

What an absolute knockout.

Congratulations! Thinking a precious metal bracelet AP is the next one for me. Looks fantastic on you.

Amazing piece!! Wow. I've thought of myself as someone who couldn't/wouldn't wear an all gold piece, but if I was going to break out of that, it would be a 5711r or this 15202BA or the 15205BA.

Very cool indeed! AP has a special way with gold. Goes to show how trying watches on in person is so important

Perfect..... and fully agree that the AP yellow gold shows way different in person.

Love this watch but YG just doesn't look good with my skin tone. If they made this in RG, though, I would buy it so quickly...

I didn’t realize AP had a boutique at Fort Knox?

Absolutely gorgeous.

I know the feeling . A ROLEX watch that people crave over never sang to me on my wrist . I had the opportunity to try on both color dials and even though a beautiful watch on the side while looking at it it didn’t do anything for me .
I am not a flipper . So I said to my AD sorry . It does not sing to me .
That day the D Blue came home with me .
