Sihh 2018 expectations? 25th Anniversay Offshore?

Can someone with good contacts with AP top hierarchy or the boutiques find out if AP is planning a 25th Anniversary offshore release at SiHH 2018 few months away.

Regards

I'm 99.9% sure they are doing something, as to what no one is talking.

lol I am in contact with the director of the Paris Boutique, but can't imagine myself asking him, we are not friends, and even if we were I guess he wouldn't know much, probably only top AP brass know these things

For the bezel maybe a limited edition but on normal models wouldn't count on it

LOL. This. Though it will make for a fun shopping season if they have some cool RO and ROO 42 offerings for me at least.

I'm hoping for the regular diver with a rose gold variant. That black dial and RG combo is beautiful on the 44. Would love to see it get filtered down to the Diver.

I am guessing it is a Perpetual ROO tourb if Conkers is excited :).

For me a redesign of the 42mm line and a ceramic rubberclad will do!

If ceramic then how could it be a rubberclad? Wouldn't it be a ceramicclad?

The very lovely Ukrainian woman in the Geneva salon knows everything and very politely declined my sincere offer of dinner (and breakfast) for a sneak preview. She did however let me wear the ceramic perpetual. I hope she isn’t reading this!

Good taste; Berluti is the best, though I was disappointed to see they just teamed up with Hublot for something.

Maybe that's the reason she passed.

Well you’re correct- I wouldn’t wear that watch but did want the blue sunnies that came with. Not sold separately I’m afraid. Dammit -speaking of which- did you see that hublot with the blue jeans strap? $25k USD!

I've paid nearly 2k for a pair of jeans once or twice, so I guess an extra 23 for a watch isn't too obscene.
