New Addition to the Website - 26405CB

Looks like the 44 grey ceramic many of us saw around SIHH time and then taken down is now back with a nice price tag of $32.1K USD.

Pretty nice piece and cool grey/blue color tones!

Looks pretty cool, just enough blue contrast to not make it too monochromatic which is always a danger with grey. I see they call the Camo one iconic, not so fast, we decide that not AP.

Thanks for posting the link. I have been waiting for this to reappear on the AP site

I like the look of this watch - it’s near the top of my “please get for me” list with the AP boutique here.

Im very interested to see this in person - worry about how monochromatic the case and dial may appear (other than the blue, of course)

Can be really great combo. Grey and blue. My only concern will be the look of ceramic in grey, not to look “plastic”...

It’s a shame that they went cheap on the strap
The watch now has the ti grey strap instead of this blue/grey one.

It’s a really good looking watch. Prefer it on the blue/grey strap rather than that ti grey one

I like it, but if going CE, the black one is nicer, imo.

During SIHH week I was pretty torn between this and the PoG CE. Then it disappeared. I'm happy to see that it's back but think I will stick with the PoG for my CE piece. I do wish it kept the blue toned strap ... I hope it doesn't look too monochromatic in person.

Guys, the straps cost like $200. I wouldn’t worry about it; you can buy whatever colors you like! I agree, a light blue would look cooler but maybe all grey looks good “in the ceramic” too.

You’re missing the point, AP decided not to produce a new blue/grey strap so the only OEM one is the ti grey which is quite a warm grey. OEM straps in the UK are Ł280, I personally don’t like the quality of Horus straps and prefer to stay with AP.

Interesting looking.

Probably biased since coming from 26405CE but think black ceramic looks much better. Will reserve final verdict once I see it in live...

I like it. I sort of liked the look of my ti better than my ce and this is somewhere in between. Also I am a whore for all things grey so theres that.

Toying with the idea of throwing my name down for one but wondering if it'll be too similar with my PoG CE. Absolutely love it though!

Yeah would be too similar for my small collection. Pride of Germany is excellent as well

Cool! This is the only ROO on my list this year. Was told by my local boutique that this one currently only for VVIPs and it is not ready for me to place deposit yet (well at least for me).

Not a fan. Too "grey" for me. It's going to look wash-out. Pass.

Isn't that what they always said. Splurge on a turbillon and you're instantly VVIP.

Oh that probably counts too! Did you try your luck asking for a 15407ST or Ceramic perpetual? Assuming you like these two watches.
