Surely the car will be lowered by the time you're sitting in it anyway, the cost of lowering it could have gone towards the next watch.

Now that's a proper way to use the G! We have some roads over in North Jersey, been meaning to go. Not sure I have enough balls to go fording in the water.

AshAP · 8 February 2017, 07:16 AM

I first became aware of AP at 18 when my mates dad bought a gold jumbo and I loved it. I bought my first AP (offshore) at 35, bought a Diver a year later, a rose gold rubberclad at 40 and a platinum offshore at 45.

gwalker · 31 August 2017, 04:45 AM

I no longer have it but I got my AP ROO when I was 26 from my ex wife. She knew I really loved APs and called my dealer at the time in Philly and he sent me the watch to "try out" for a 3 day weekend. Someone bought it and returnees it a week later so he had no issues with me trying it out. On Monday she told me she purchased it for me. I really loved it until I tried on a 44 and the titanium scratched pretty bad.

Recently turned 34 but got my first AP RO15400 in March 2017 when I was 33. When I first started getting into watches about 10 years ago, I never thought I'd be able to afford an AP RO. It's one of those "I made it" milestones I wanted to achieve.

tng11 · 31 August 2017, 05:51 AM

27 - have a 15202ST, 26320ST and ROO Jarno Trulli. Bought the 15202ST this year, the 26320ST last year and the Jarno in 2013.

Been flipping APs for the better part of a decade!

Yeah I think our man of platinum must weigh a ton, Mike why did you spend money unwiselY? You just needed to be a little patient, the car must have been lower by 15-20 inches with just you sitting in it

69 and looking to buy a 15400 SS silver dial when David SW gets one in. I think the Rolex watches look more like an older persons watch than the AP. The AP has a more modern shape to it.

Thanks. It's a great watch and it was so light. It just always seemed to scratch easily

first AP I ever wore, 14ish wearing a ROC. My friend let me borrow his dads. I paid him some money because i wanted to wear it so bad. lol. A few days later he said he needed it back ASAP LOL. We didnt know the value of these things.... AP has always been at my heart but havent pulled the trigger on one.

60s - 15706 carbon fiber diver. Old person's watch? :-)

Me too. 15202OR. Luckily I have nearly a decade to pull it off

CJFromMA · 1 September 2017, 12:38 AM

60 & 26331ST - Blue ROC (when it arrives in October!). Like David (64) in an earlier post, I've only recently felt comfortable with my finances in order to justify the purchase. Comfortable meaning I know I can retire (if I want to) without any financial worries. That and I was only really bitten by the watch bug about 1-2 years ago.

I do think it's awesome that so many of you are younger. In general you all must be super successful (and, I suspect, hard working) to be able to engage in a relatively expensive (but satisfying) hobby, especially for those with significant collections.

PS - I don't "feel" 60!

This is so cool but crazy. I have this vision of "Sandlot" where Smalls uses his dad's Babe Ruth baseball for the pickup game!

My old roommates dad is Dan Jennings the VP of the marlins and managed them
A while. We were in a bar and one of our other room mates was wearing his 03 ring. It slid off his finger and the top crown fell off. Dan was so relaxed about it he said that's. Or the real one it's just an exact replica.
