AP newbie says hi to you all

I’m excited to report that I just acquired my first AP, 26300 panda and couldn’t be happier. I had to trade in a few 5 digit Rolexes that I loved but I believe it is well worth it. Old style bracelet may not be the most convenient one out there but isn’t bothering me a bit. Perfect everything for my 7” wrist.

Looking forward to having lots of fun with my AP. Thanks for looking. Cheers.

Nice! Enjoy

I used to own a blue dial 25860 with the same clasp, I actually prefer it to the AP logo one, I found it very comfortable and never had an issue.
