Green RO Perpetual Calendar

Thought you might be interested, but I came across an interesting piece the other day (I didn’t take any photos of the piece, but did get a photo of a photo later on from another of the AD’s locations)

Seems that AP had produced a limited edition of 50 pieces of the RO perpetual calendar with a vibrant green dial specially for an AD here who runs AP-dedicated boutiques. The pieces are largely for VVIPs, but a few may be available for sale.

In the flesh, the colour is akin to a Rolex Hulk-like shade of green, but a bit brighter and lighter - quite striking!

Was thinking the same! Those hourglass jumbos are gorgeous and still available BNIB for a fair price considering 50 made.

First I’ve seen of that dial and it’s

Secretly hoping the do a IP version of the PC (Pt/Ti) even better if they carried over the grey/blue dial of the 26331IP.

Or be like FHB and have the PC Ce with my name on the dial

That would be amazing! Although a FHB CE PC would be perfection. Would have to get my initials on the custom rotor as well.

Only way we’d get our names on the dial is if we started calling ourselves ‘Audemars Piguet’ or ‘Swiss Made’

Good one

But I know another way... if you are named like any town in the World you can buy Audemars Piguet Equation of Time and then change the inner ring at AP with coordinates and name of the town.

What is position of FHB name on the CE dial?

Regarding this green one, prefer the blue, and as Roger said the yellow hand is too much on the dial...

Hahaha I did forget the name ‘automatic’ as well

It’s underneath the month sub dial, sure there’s ones pics on forum of it?!

Sadly I’m just not a fan of blue dial but yeah have to agree with you both the yellow is an odd choice! Really like a few of the AP two tone dials, the PC Ce ok technically not two tone but the black of the GT looking almost grey against the solid black sub dials is lovely, the 26331IP with its slate grey GT and blue subs is and lastly the RG PC pink gold GT and blue subs
(Aware due is in two of my choices )

I'm also fan of gray blue combo (both 26331IP RO and QE Cup ROO), not so much of the mirror polished bezel on 26331IP ... would be great to have a PC with that dial colors combo....

Weird. Their main location in Jordan still claims to have no information on delivery date. I have to say if it is 20 per cent more than a standard steel blue that is pretty shocking and difficult to justify. Smacks of opportunism by Unique Timepieces. Care to share which locations?

Not a fan of this color combo. Prefer the blue/SS.

Are we sure it’s a 20% premium over the standard 26574st?

Even the 26584OR (Latin America) is only 10% more then the standard 26574OR (£80,700 Vs £88,500 so just under 10%)

The standart one MSRP is 478000HKD, green dial is 56XXXX I believe, nearly 20% premium. 15% at least.

Thanks. Appreciate it. Don’t think I will be getting this one given that unjustified premium. Will go and see in the flesh when I am back in HK.

Ouch that’s a premium for a colour change!
