Started in 2006 but saw all the value go down over the years. Went from about 14 limited editions to these 3

Is the middle watch ceramic? I thought AP released one limited edition all ceramic off shore, but I don’t remember the watch looking like the one in the photo. Nice watches!

From memory the Survivor is a DLC’d Ti case with ceramic bezel and it’s an LE of 1,000 pieces

Nice 3some!

Do people feel that AP do too many limited or special editions? Literally dozens on the AP website currently....

Here is the list of the LEs I’ve owned:

T3
Shaq
RB I
RB II
Tour Auto
Pride of Russia
The Legacy
Grand Prix
Las Vegas
Arnold All Stars
Rhone Fusterie
Alinghi Polaris
Sachin Tendulkar

I can’t remember the other ones but the saturation of the limited-edition over the years definitely made them less valuable as also did the trend towards “smaller” dials and stainless steel. I’m sure there are some models that are not on this list that may or have done quite well in terms of value but from my experience it hasn’t been the case.
