Wrist is a bit over 7". I was surprised we took out only one link from the bracelet - anyone with an 7.5"+ wrist would probably need another link or two, which I imagine will be quite dear. |

Congrats! Seems like a large batch went out at once. I remember during my first trip to the manufacture, we saw 10-15 QP’s, in all materials, that just finished production on a machine getting tested. |

Amazing watch and picture.
Congrats mate!!! I must say I find it very hard to photograph black ceramic... One thing that is even better than I thought with APs CE is that it really doesn't scratch. I wear mine all the time everywhere since I got it, gym, airport security, swimming, office, restaurants and bars (as I do my other RO btw). All of my other ROs steel or gold would have already been a bit scratched. Here nothing as good as day 1. Love this!!! |

Congrats OP, I a absolutely love this watch. I have the steel version with the blue dial, buy im trying to convince my SA to get this one as well.
One issue i have with mine is that it can wear a bit too thick. Does yours hide the thickness considering its black? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Along with the 38mm Blue Panda, I think this is the best looking chrono ever produced.

An indestructible RO. I imagine this guy will be a daily for you.
Is the case back ceramic? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Casebook is steel (or titanium?). I don't know if that's cost-saving or for technical reasons (i.e., otherwise couldn't torque the screws sufficiently to achieve water resistance rating).

Another 26240CE incoming

Technical reasons, assuming AP applies the same logic as with the CE QPs. “And the back is titanium, instead of ceramic, to avoid cracking it if the rear screws are excessively tightened.” From this link: https://watchesbysjx.com/2019/10/aud...k-ceramic.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thanks for the info gentlemen. How is the black ceramic bracelet reflecting light compared to an ss RO, Vogel? Is the polished bits more reflective? (as it’s basically glass) I’ve yet to see this in person. So many questions, lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

IMO, ceramic ROs are a little less flashy/more subtle than their SS counterparts. E.g, to me the 15407 seemed more bling than a 15416. AP CE has a more discreet and unique appeal, can't think of anything like it.
