Whatcha think of this offshore? It’s a pretty old model. Interesting coz it’s full titanium, also the dial scheme. Been looking at this one the past few weeks. Thoughts if you have/had this please.

Anyone? This wasn’t really a common or sought after piece before perhaps?

I think it looks pretty cool, one of the rare ones with full bracelet so not too many choices unless you want to go full gold brick or the old school original one. I love AP grey themes so I imagine this will look really good in person as well as being a versatile piece.

Looks a bit old school, think the newer colour combos from AP are more the thing now.

Sorry, what about the color combo that makes it look old? I was assuming it was the rubber pushers that would give this model an older feel

I like it. Ti would be a plus on a normally heavy piece.

Strange but aside from the new ghost, I prefer this one for wearing than the other 42mm offshores (including the newer ones). Weird.

True. I find it better too, not a funky looking offshore.
