This ceramic perpetual belongs to a very good friend of mine, he has this and the Patek nautilus perpetual. Between the 2 I’d take the AP as I feel it has more wrist presence and I really love the dial layout on all the AP perpetual that I’ve seen. This model also comes with a very nice leather winder which I different to the cubik winders that AP give as gifts.

Amazing. Looks so good. I've only ever seen one out in the wild that too from a distance and it was like a black hole. Sucked me and everyone around it right in.

What are everyone's thoughts on the original vs the new openwork.

Personally I think I prefer the openwork, but the original is also very nice and has a very....strictly business feel about it. All black everything.

Now getting one. That is another story. Fingers crossed.

The openwork is amazing but I prefer the original. I think the openwork is a little too busy.

Openwork all day but that is a watch even vvip are sweating to source. I would be ecstatic with either.

That is an incredible pair to have, lucky man.

I have one as well, easily one of my favorite watches, and ironically one of the most practical given it's scratch resistant properties...love it!

It's a great material isn't it?
If you get a chance please share some pics.

Holding firm trading at approx 115k usd to about 130k. Don't think the impact will be major as both serials are low production.

Curious to see what the openwork is selling for grey if anyone is in the know. Or if anyone wants to guess what it will sell for over MSRP...

I believe max over at the keystone already brought one to market. I forget what they were asking but in excess of 200k. I imagine this one will stay high because of a few observations.

1) According to those in the know (aka Roger lol) production will be very tight. The boutique told me 50 examples but that was refuted by others here.

2) Lets be honest there isn't really anything to complain about on this watch.

3) I think even once the AP crowd is fulfilled the secondary will be propped up by RM collectors. That is just my gut feeling given the execution and aesthetics.

Thanks for the input. So I'd say north of low 200s for now. Will probably hold, maybe go up further as non WIS catch wind of its existence lol?

Great point on the RM factor, this is right up there.

My memory is crap. That was the RD2 sold by keystone. Looks like a dealer in HK claims to have one for 246k but stock photos.

Would be nice if they just produced a lot lol.
VVIPs will still flip them though.

This is my grail

I just met a young man who was wearing his and he kindly let me inspect it in detail. I took a couple of very bad pics. It’s pretty incredible IRL.

Unrelated to that experience I also have a couple of pics of the white PC ceramic.

The white was pretty stunning but possibly too white.
However, given my penchant for mixing things up, a zebra version would be amazing, black, white contrasted with alternating black/white links and a white bezel on black case or visa versa.
Reality however is another thing all together.

It really is incredible, however, it’s very ‘busy’ IRL, great to while a way hours in the evening with a loupe, otherwise though the details don’t immediately pop. It’s more like artwork that take time to appreciate.

Absolutely stunning. Thanks for sharing the pics.
It does look a little busy in those pics...but it is beautiful to look at nonetheless.
The original has a certain simplicity and charm about it... The openworked has more of a wow factor.

Both are great in the end. Lol

Nice circles you are moving in when these stunning watches are presented for your wrist's entertainment.
