Another one from AP Boston! Great experience!
So, I actually got put in touch with the Boston staff before the opening of the Boutique. One of the service managers I have worked with for years in Clearwater was nice enough to connect me to a wonderful SA in Boston, and I actually got this watch shipped (couldn't fly up due to Covid issues) to coincide with the opening.

The staff in Boston are wonderful, and are genuinely interested in connecting brand lovers with watches. I cannot say enough positive stuff about the experience. Knowledgeable staff, and we spent over an hour discussing watches from ALS and FPJ, and of course AP. I always like it when SAs know, love and discuss watches from other brands.

So, two big thumbs up from me on the new Boutique. Boston is lucky to have it, and so are we as AP fans. Oh yeah, I got the hat as well, which pairs nicely with an AP wallet I got years ago from my old AD (before they lost their status).

The watch? Well, what more to say? My favorite ROC in the world. Absolutely love the classiness of the rhodium dial. And, I love how different it is from my 26300 (also pictured). The bracelet on the new one is sublime compared to the old model, but i love them both.

Congratulations! They must have hid it for you because I asked if they had any other dial colors other than the one I got lol. Nice pick up!

Looks amazing congrats! Also love that hat because Logo is all blacked out. Breitling sent me one with a giant gold B on it, so I'd never wear it lol.

Hey buddy! Yeah it was an exciting time, and the Boston Btq took such great care of me. Great staff there. Really enjoyed the purchase experience and absolutely LOVE the watch.

Thanks all! Was messaging my SA today and after only three days open they are down to a handful of watches left (less than 10) in the entire Btq. So much pent up AP love that they just got swarmed. It's a great problem to have!

And I know they are doing their level best to get them in the hands of AP lovers, not flippers. Congrats to everyone who got a watch they desired in this grand opening experience.

So is it the clasp that makes you like the new bracelet better?
