Great pic up Jim. Congrats. Love your AP's.

Thank you and love that strap! Is it AP or aftermarket? Was thinking about picking up the GP strap with red accents but prefer rubber.

Not bad a little too rubbery, malleable. I definitely prefer AP rubber, it's better quality & sturdier. Hope this helps.

Love the summer edition however complete scratch magnet. I tried on their demo one that is sent out for photo shoots and such. All mucked up. As for the S love it, absolute pleasure to drive. Not my car as the city of chicago destroys all nice suspensions and wheels.

I really like the Summer Edition and AP London are looking at sourcing one for me. Seemingly they have an allocation of three, two of which have already gone, the third has my name on it. Yes, there's the jeopardy of scratches to the bezel but I think I've got so used to wearing chunky watches by now that I tend to subconsciously avoid knocking them. I reckon that demo 'loaner' has had quite a hard time too! That said, it may have been better to have perhaps, if feasible, produced a gold Cermet bezel for it.

True, it is more of a summer watch on white strap, but should be ok generically on the optional blue one.
