Vintage purchase question
Hi all,
I have purchased a non Royal Oak AP (bit of a left field acquisition), and although it is not the normal type of AP I would buy, the actual watch and particularly the movement is stunning. The only information I have is that the reference is 25661 in Platinum and was produced in a series run of 100pcs. I was hoping to find out if there is a good resource to find out about older models as there seems very little information on the internet. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

Beautiful engraving on the movement and lovely watch.
Have you tried emailing your local APSC and asking them for more info ? AP is a company keen to keep their history alive, so I would hope they would be able to pull some records for you with more information.

Reach out AP directly and pay for an extract from the archives.
