I have been an Audemars collector for a number of years and the only watch that I have acquired in recent years that rivals AP is my RG RM 010.
I care not what the resale might be - but it is better than my GE stock.....
I love the watch! it is a masterpiece in engineering and a work of art to look at. I routinely choose it as I open my safe and make a selection for special occassions. I proudly wore it last week to watch Massa win in Brazil.
I have heard to stories about service issues and tend to dismiss them - having had APs that were not exactly perfect....
please keep up the great work Richard for you are truly a master watchmaker!!!!!
Regards from South Florida!
