So is each square its own color or does the squares color change as well depending on angle?

I’d say each square has no color per se, the effect is similar to the back of a CD disc. Found this explanation on the internet. “When light reflects off or passes through something with many small ridges or scratches, you often get rainbow colors and interesting patterns.”

I think this explains the rainbow color effect that’s hard to capture from photos

I make my living playing music professionally, so I really WANT to like these.

Knee-jerk reaction: The black ceramic with the EQ tappisserie would be my choice, but I’m not blown away by the design.

Would have been really cool for AP to incorporate a real mechanically powered EQ dial.

Loud!

50th rotor is reserved for RO new reference models.

ROO isn't quite 50 yet :)

I just bought the ruthenium 15510ST last week and most certainly did not pay 36K for it. It was 25k and change.

No increase here in the Uk so you’re probably right those are $ for a non US market.

Does anyone here know if the recent releases of the 15510 pieces as well as the music edition ROOs were expected time-specific releases? Meaning, as regards any other upcoming releases this year, does AP inform in advance what month(s) the next release(s) will be? Or are they all un-timed?
I’m particularly curious if there may be other ROOs (non-LE) coming this year.
Thanks.

Thanks.

There was a schedule at one point but that’s entirely been scrapped due to the initial demand surge in January and boutiques getting inundated.

The current schedule is random and as corporate sees fit to not add fuel to the fire

Does anyone think a three hand/Chrono ceramic RO will be released this year?

Like the Kevin hart.

So, indeed a 37mm "ultra-thin" flying tourbillon - I didn't have much confidence in that rumor. This is the only watch using this particular movement, I assume?

Are the iced out openworked (15417OR.ZZ), the turquoise CODE supersonnerie (26397BC) and the blue ceramic openworked CODE (26600NB) new as well? Pretty sure I didn't see the latter two before.

Boutique would neither confirm nor deny that rumor My WAG is that will be the grand finale of the 50th RO/ROC releases.

How popular are openworked and tourbillons in 37mm? I feel like i never see those on social media. Anyone try to get one of those?
