I know 99% of you won’t like this but I’m in love with this AP. Factory diamond and limited edition run. Being in my late 20’s I’ve had my eye on this watch for a while now. I’m trying to come to an agreement with the seller on a better price. If all goes well I’m looking to pull the trigger soon.

What does the 'naked' version of this watch look like - without the fairground sparkles?

I would imagine the depreciation on a watch with diamonds on is going to be far greater than the unadorned version.
Well the list price on this particular one is just under €70k. I don’t believe these lose much especially being factory diamond set and being in very limited run. The one I’m after has been used a few times, like new. The seller is wanting £57k.
Is that even a man's watch? - I could just about see it on a woman.

Oh, perhaps you ARE a woman! sorry....
It’s 2018, you shouldn’t assume gender wink

That AP is ridiculous. A fool and his money are soon parted!

Great logic, so I shouldn’t buy a watch because someone on a forum somewhere doesn’t like it. You old gits are boring! Hahaha

Chum, I'd get that AP bought sharpish before Kez scores a few more fx trades and snaps it up.

It's been a very busy time of late for many reasons so I'm a bit slower than usual in getting pics of some of these posted

Picked up this lovely PO from TZ-UK almost a month ago.







I'd been after this very spec for some time. I'm loving it.

The Fortis was another that had been on my list for a while. I bought it new in Feb from a dealer in Melbourne via Chrono24 at a decent price, but my Sister-in-law brought it over a few weeks ago.







The SLA025 had been on order from Jura since March & landed on the 9th of July, but it's gone back to Jura for a full refund. I've had high end Seiko's before, but this just didn't feel like a £5,000 watch.



The AlpinerX came yesterday, but that's not staying either - just put up for sale.

Indeed, but limited run and 5k price tag frown. I want me some of that nice high-beat caliber.

That's very nice too, exactly the same layout as the IWC 3706, do they share the same movement?

Both use a Valjoux 7750 I believe.

What's going on with the colour on the 1 and the 2? The 1 looks very dim in comparison...

Just a feature of the lighting on the shot I think. They are the same colour as you can see from the other pictures.
