While I've been very happy with the Ti buckle, I'm looking forward to your pics showing off the gold one. I bet it looks fantastic.

Thank you so much guys! Literally haven't taken it off since I've picked it up. Finally back stateside and have time to catch up on everything - here are some detailed shots showing why I jumped to the RG buckle:







Is an absolutely incredible watch on the Ti buckle but for me tying everything together with the RG buckle just adds a special touch that really puts the PoG over the top.

I love it!

EDIT: Man, I've got some hairy wrists.

You are right. The prices of the ceramic have dropped to much more reasonable levels. 10% to 15% premium.

Initial grey prices were a joke.

I certainty agree! The RG tang buckle really makes the gold accents more obvious.

What are your first impressions of the gold version?

I have to say, the ceramic version is everything I had hoped for and more. It's been hogging my wrist since I received it a few weeks ago. While waiting all year for it to come in had me chomping at the bit, the wait was well worth it!

Love it and much better in the flesh than the photos suggests. The spiritual successor to the original RG Rubber Clad. I posted a twin shot with the ceramic on my IG feed.

I was told they were all sold out, when I enquired in November.

Brilliant the way the lugs fit seemlessly into the case.

Does AP make more each year or are these just a onetime run?

Limited to 300 for the black ceramic one in the pics and 30 for the yellow gold ceramic one... you should be able to find one for $40 to $45k for the black one.... I believe 36k euros was retail price when it was released so grey premium ain’t bad. I love it and really considering making it my next purchase ... the fact that I’m German doesn’t hurt either :) kinda makes sense

Seems like all 300 are completely sold out!

Looks like the only way to buy is through a grey. But, I’d like to pick one up!

If anyone is in the market, Takuya has one for a fair price. Such a killer piece.

Ahh. Bummer. It's still on his site. Annoying when that happens. I'll keep an eye out.
