Jarno Trulli Limited

Just picked this up.

Very different IMHO. Scratch-free bezel, forged carbon... Rubber... Has a lot of the best AP attributes.

Limited to 500 pieces.

I had this for a while, it doesn’t get the true appreciation in my opinion.
Wear it in good health

I agree, it's a great piece! I've been keeping my eye out for a clean example.

Enjoy.

Such a cool watch. I love the colours they used. That's why I like the AP Elephant as well.

For me it is no contest best 42mm ROO chrono AP ever produced... the only problem is that fc case can be damaged and loose sharp angles over years... beside that we speak about great color combination, only 42mm ROO that use ceremet bezel - IMHO the best material AP ever used on the bezel - scratch proof like ceramic and has the shinny metal feel, one of few 42mm ROO chronos without Arabic numbers... a really wonderful watch...

Changed the band to white yesterday. I think it looks much smarter.

This is one of the best looking 42mm APs there is.

It’s one of the best Offshores ever made imho. I sold mine (yes on TRF) and miss her already.

Fully agree on the cermet bezel being tough as nails. If only they had done that to the FC since it can lose its bevels and chamfers over time.

I wore mine on a red AP strap which really suits that watch. Reminded me of an RM at times, wear her in good health!
