New Royal Oak 50th Anniversary Book!

You can pre-order the beautiful Assouline coffee table book. I got a sneak peek of it at AP House and it's a lovely collectors item for the Royal Oak milestone

Pre-Ordered too, quite pricey at €250 but have to get it. Also look how much the 40th Anniversary book goes for!

BTW use code THANKYOU15 to get 15% off!

Thanks for the promo code tip! I pre-ordered mine too. Hoping it's as good as the 40th anniversary book.

Is this an official AP RO book or is this a book compiled by a third party?

AP commissioned it from Assouline for the 50th. It's official AP.

I saw the email from AP this morning and was planning to order today, just placed it! This looks really well put together and the price isn't ridiculous considering its ~300 pages.

Thanks for the discount code supernova!

The best thing about HODINKEE articles is reading the comments where people who can’t find AP at retail, hating on the RO…

They’re also the same people hating on Patek and Rolex because they can’t find those at retail either

right? It's non stop 'one trick pony', 'no variation' type comments in regard to AP. But they'd be licking their chops *if* they could get one

Or you can find certain individual watch YouTubers who couldn’t get a 50th anniversary piece do and say the same

I'll be another adding this one to the coffee table. Very cool. Always wanted an AP coffee table book. There's something about the RO that lends itself to this sort of format.

You could ship to NA and then use a forwarder to ship to SG. I usually use ezship they're pretty decent.

Edit: Actually I got to the end of checkout and it does seem to ship to SG... 80 Euros.

Not sure what I am doing wrong, I can’t get a shipping option outside of the Americas.

Are you on the eu website? No problem for me - ordered one to SG. Maybe turn off your vpn if you have one.
80 euros shipping is crazy (i guess because the package is 5kg??) but the 15% off made me feel a bit better
