First AP - Incoming
Finally dipping my toe into the AP world! Picking up a new old stock RO 15500 silver/white on Tuesday! I’ve been pretty Rolex exclusive for a while but I’ve been eyeing AP for a long long time.

I’ll post pics when I pick it up, was just excited so I thought I’d post.

You’re going to love it man! Got the same one.

Assuming you went grey… if you don’t mind me asking how much did you pay and how NOS was it (stickers/tape)?

And please send pics when you have it in hand. You’re in for a treat

Congrats on the new addition!

Condolences to your wallet for the next 2-3 additions that will soon arrive as well as the affliction sets in.

PS, don't forget to get plots and straps to change the look from time to time. The best reason to have the silver dial is it's a neutral color and can match any strap color!

Haha! Looks great on you! Don’t you think an AP needs to be seen in person to be appreciated? The sharp lines, polishing and bracelet are something else on the wrist. I was not a fan until I put one on, then I couldn’t stop thinking about them.
