This one is AP DNA through and through. MUCH better looking in real life, and IMO is a step up. I’m a fan of the green, not cartoonish at all, and the contrast against the black is subtle. Actually looks quite ‘tactical’ green>blue

macrowatch · 12 July 2020, 05:47 AM

Wow, sick indeed. Seems like the AP version of Hulk. Doesn’t seem like it should work design wise, but it does in person.

Awesome!!!!!!!

The green one is very impressive. For me the best of the lot released.

drgoro · 12 July 2020, 09:39 AM

I agree! While the blue is cool, I'd venture to say it looks better in pics than real life (opposite for the green); I just think for me it would become obnoxious over time. The two tone wasn't for me.

I also agree with this. I was positively surprised how amazing the green looked IRL

Big congratulations!

guanxi · 12 July 2020, 02:43 PM

Congrats looks great on you! Enjoy this ideal summer watch! I will have to try it...I am curious!

jamestucker · 12 July 2020, 02:51 PM

Looks great!

ragsk · 12 July 2020, 06:50 PM

I do like that!!

GS93108 · 12 July 2020, 07:18 PM

These models are way better in these customer pics that the earlier one. Nice pick up. I can't wait to see all three new models in person.

AK797 · 12 July 2020, 08:45 PM

I want to see them for real, maybe the numbers are not so imposing.

Do you fancy a trip to London in the near future?

They really are not, and I believe that they accomplished this by making that top subdial black, if anything it creates a more interesting look to the dial layout. I haven't found the photogenic nature of the whole 11.11.1 to be an issue either (it was the thing which gave the greatest pause, again maybe the 'blackhole' effect)...but the thing that has me really enjoying this is how the green melds smoothly with the black, it took a while for multiple people around me to actually realize that the cast was a different color. The one thing would have changed is the buckle, I wanted it ceramic as well, but I guess it's the limitation of the material. I'm also concerned about how the strap will wear over time.

Congratulations OP, great looking watch

More pics

drgoro · 12 July 2020, 11:59 PM

I'll get some outdoor shots, the green is really quiet difficult to photograph using an iPhone. The best comparison is a British racing/metallic green on a 911, it's extraordinary (not 'metallic' like the hulk dial).

Congrats on the acquisition! Definitely not for me but good to see some picking them up. Someone brought a green to the lounge over the weekend and all us watch nuts had a look, several trying it on and was interesting to hear the thoughts. Most agreed it was not for them and biggest gripe was the numbers.

drgoro · 13 July 2020, 04:37 AM

Thanks Awesome input! Lol. I buy my watches for me though. So if it’s not for you there are so many other choices! Go Check them out.
