Awesome that you buy what you like, definitely why you’re getting offered these pieces. You almost broke the AP forum section haha

OP’s strong choice does beg the question how many people want a Jumbo based on its merits (including enjoyment of wearability) versus because of its hype status?? |

I can chime in here since I have both. This is of course personal taste. When I was able to try out a Jumbo exhibition piece at my boutique, I was sold. Out of my AP rotation, the Jumbo gets the most wear by a wide margin. There is something about the proportions of the watch that is just perfect. I'm sure some folks want the Jumbo for the hype, but not this guy.

Regardless, I am impressed to know that you wear your Jumbo preferentially. |

It's the slimness and the way the lugs are designed. Although it's a smaller diameter, the lugs flair out more and basically cover the area that a 41 case would normally cover. The slimmer case makes it very comfortable to wear and get under a cuff. I much prefer the petite tapisserie over the grande tapisserie as well. It's something that you really don't think about until you get a Jumbo on the writs. Again, it's a personal preference.

I don’t own a Jumbo (yet!) but whenever I try one on it’s pretty much my perfect all round watch and I consider it an endgame piece. I’m a patient guy but I’ll have one at some point I’m sure. |

Congrats OP on the watch! I just picked up a 41mm grey and surprisingly it fits better than my expectation on my small wrist. I tried on the 37mm and that was too small.
