Just joined the AP Club!
Just got my first AP - a ROO Panda! Watch fits great, wears comfortably, and I think will see lots of wrist time... Thanks to the members here for great information and pictures while I was deciding what to get. Been looking to consolidate my collection for a bit now, and over the weekend went from 9 down to 5, picking up the Panda and credit towards a potential future 15400...Only question I have is whether the AP GP blk/red strap will fit on a bracelet watch?

Question from my 18 yr old son
My 18 year old son asked me today while taking a ride with me in my 83' 911 SC Porsche with my no date sub on my wrist, What is the least expensive Rolex?. I was not certain as to the answer, so I pose it to the Rolex lovers on this fine forum (and please don't answer Tudor), I am certain he was thinking of one with the Kings crown on it.

The 43mm dial...it's pretty good.
Finally took the plunge and bought a Seadweller 43mm, to replace the SD4000 I sold just before they were discontinued. I was a bit wary given the increased size. But it works for me, and I do prefer this model. What strikes me is how the extra size of the dial creates more space, so it seems less cluttered than the 40mm model. Add the red writing and it just becomes a more interesting watch.Which I never expected or noticed from photos.
