Question about AP 16204

Hi All,

What are your thoughts on the Jumbo 16204 openworked in RG and the new WG version? I think the WG version is around 124k. What is the retail on the RG version?

Can owners give me a sense of how difficult it is to get an allocation? How hard is it to get relative to other hot pieces like the 15407, AP RO tourbillon, etc.

Thanks and pics are much appreciated!

WG will be the same price as the RG

Going to be pretty damn hard to get. I'd imagine harder than the 15407

Yes, the price is the same for RG, YG, and WG. I've been lucky enough to handle all 3 metal versions. It's a beautifully executed timepiece. It's really a treat to look at under a loupe. I've requested the WG version. We'll see how difficult is to get.

Just next level finishing - I would argue better executed than my 26585CE!

I actually just passed on a YG one a few days ago (it wasn't on my wishlist) - now I'm wondering if I should call back??!?

It’s a beauty. If they release that baby in sand gold I’m in.

Definitely! Sand Gold or Ceramic would be mind blowing but this WG one is incredible.

Thanks for the responses. All metals are amazing. For me, I think the RG and dark openwork area looks best.
