Definitely. Do not hesitate. An AP reflects a certain panache. It says that you are a watch person.

It won’t be an AP at the end.

I like the Royal Oak a lot but I think would not wear it as a daily because it’s not a watch that looks good once it has some scratches.

What size wrist? You may be underwhelmed by the smaller 15450

I have started to become interested in AP over the last few months, and went to see them in the flesh while I was in London last week. I had the chance to see the white dial in a few variations, the dial and finish on these watches is totally on another level, and the white dial is incomparable. I’d do that trade in a second.

It does. Look at all the beat up AP RO's and PP nautilus. Just wear it and enjoy it.

Glad you made a decision. IMHO, AP RO with its marvelous case/bracelet and caseback display is a fine elegant timepiece. Mine is daily but I wear long sleeve shirts everyday. Look forward to seeing your incoming piece.

Don’t you think that the AP will at least stay stable in price?

I’m not buying watch as an investment but not loosing money would be great for sure.

The AP will stay stable enough - although the 15450 white or grey dials do drop a bit. Blue dial does not.
