May be over-speculation, but the two most recent Instagram feed posts for AP were videos highlighting the 1980's and 1990's (each shared 1 day apart). It could follow that a 2000's post would come today, 2010's tomorrow, and "2020's" the next. That final post could include the introduction of additional references.

I am disappointed. I thought something would come today. And potentially also a call from my SA...

Hearing much of the rumours from my friends only. But I do not believe them completely.

I don’t know if you’ve seen the other thread, but the 15500 has already been teased on the AP site.

I have, but just the one pic and not the full details of the new 15510 novelty as yet.

Think some TRF members have seen the new 15510 but we are all waiting for more pics/details as yet..

You might be onto something there, although cadence may be a bit slower.

I wonder why they continue to use the titanium case for the back when they’ve successfully done ceramic for the openworked QP and the black on black arguably looks better

I wonder if the 50m vs 20m water resistance has something to do with it. Or maybe they just want the QP to be extra-special

I dont get the fascination with full ceramic. Its a cheap and brittle material. I will take metal

My Ceramic QP is easily one of my favorite watches I own, and far prefer it to nearly any metal save Ti.

A ceramic RO or ROC would be ace, AP finishes it like no other. That one doesn't seem to have the RG highlights as the Kevin Hart one did.

When finished as AP does, ceramic may be many things, but cheap is not one of them.

Looks like RG to me?

Either way, cool looking AP, but sad about the caseback.

Nothing tops the 38mm blue panda for me still from an aesthetics perspective.

So is a gshock. If you are worried about scratches wear a gshock.

Ceramic is cheaper than metal. Its brittle and hard to work with. Its difficult to finish so it becomes expensive.
