PuristSPro AP Forum giveaway: AP Go Offshore Book

Jun 01, 2014,16:56 PM
 

Hello Friends,


As the calendar has turned to June, we have all had plenty of time to contemplate Audemars Piguet's newest 42mm Royal Oak Offshore collection.  Thanks to my fellow Moderators, and thanks to many of you, our great members, we have all been able to see these 6 new Offshores repeatedly on our forum.  And hopefully many of you had had the opportunity to see them live at local AP Boutiques and other authorized AP points of sale.

A bit under the radar is the wonderful new book AP has made to celebrate the new Offshore collection.  All of the new models are finely captured.  Even better, the first book within the orange binder contains a wonderful walk through all of the previous 42mm self-winding Royal Oak Offshores, including the Limited Edition versions.  And an incredible list at the end of the volume summarizes these 118 references presented from 1993-2014.  Every AP fan needs this volume in their collection.

Here are a few photos of the book:

















Winning my extra copy will be easy!  Well, at least qualifying to win it will be smile  Simply reply to this thread and state which of the 6 new models is your favorite.  Of course, your additional thoughts are welcomed.

We will let this contest run for 1 week.  Next Sunday I will lock the thread and randomly choose a winner.  I will ship this volume anywhere in the world.  Good luck PuristS!

Brown looks great!

 By: Ed Watches : June 2nd, 2014-15:45
Blue second. I also love the warm feel of the Safari and the RG on leather strap, but their inner bezels in colors that are different from the rest of the dial make the watches look smaller than they are IMHO. The black one and the RG on bracellet do not ...

My favorite watch is the one with grey dial! The color grey is an unemotional color. It is detached, neutral, impartial and indecisive. Being both motionless and emotionless, gray is solid and stable, creating a sense of calm and composure, relief from a ...
