So much this. ROO all the focus is on 44mm, and for RO and ROC it's all at 41mm. Shame for those of us that like smaller elegant watches.

Pricing according to the watchesbysjx article are as follows:

Steel – CHF133,000
Titanium – CHF133,000
Pink gold – CHF164,000

I think prices globally are in CHF and at time of purchase are converted to the local currency. So for U.S. pricing looks to be around $145k for the steel or titanium.

Incoming photos and a video on my IG feed. This is a superb release from AP.

Indeed!

Very, very nice. And congrats again! Enjoy it in the greatest of health. It's such a lovely piece.

Looking forward to getting mine some time next year.

Also, I noticed a Japan-market specific one that isn't on the AP site. https://www.instagram.com/p/CIP98xvrSMQ/

The US market needs to step up its game -- we don't get anything cool here.

That's correct.

I believe that for any pieces whose CHF price is >=100k it's not converted and fixed into USD, and instead remains at the CHF price and is converted at time of purchase/deposit. (That's why some pieces, like the QP's are listed at above $100k USD since that's <100k CHF.)

Thanks my friend. Yes Japan and Yoshida get at least half a dozen special editions a year at the moment. The salmon flying tourbillon is very cool.

Indeed. :(

US market needs to step up their game badly.

I can't remember the last special edition we got. And even then, I don't think it was notable enough for me to care (yes that's subjective, of course).

Maybe the blue ceramic 44mm but with red dial and white sub dials?

Thanks my friend. The dial is awesome but very difficult to capture accurately with my limited camera skills. In the flesh it is very striking.

Great wristshot by horoloupe. Love this titanium edition, but I find markers and logo too big... also, I would love it more without stepdial...

Yes indeed and if the titanium model had a different coloured dial it would be the same refrain again! Prefer contrasting dials but still an amazing piece for sure. I imagine both will be very successful for AP.

So the tourbillions are not easy to get? Or are they accessible?

Im guessing no chance for normal people but if you have the funds why don't you call up some boutiques and report back - maybe you get lucky.

AP doesn't make a ton. So not a lot of allocations going to the boutiques.
